What Traveling Means To You

What traveling means to you?
For me, traveling means a lot. Traveling means a lifetime learning lesson. It's beyond just relaxing, taking picture, or playing in the beach. Traveling is a effective method to accept the difference among us. Traveling doesn't have to be expensive. By the time you take your first step, you already decided that you are in it. Traveling can be effective way to create peace and spread love to the world. Imagine if you have a chance to know a lot of good people around the world, chance to feel the the atmosphere of different place, have a good time with local people. Giving you a hard lesson that not everybody in the world is just happy as you are. A lot of people keep dying, poverty, diseases, war, and another. It's a noble if you are planning to go to some underdeveloped country. Helping the kids, the people, and to know how they suffer.

Just as John Lennon's Imagine Song
Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try
No people below us, above it's only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no country, it isn't hard to do
No need to kill or die and no religions too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And world will live as one

Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger a brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing for all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will live as one

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Take my hand and join us
And the world will live as one

What Kind Of Traveler Are You ?

What kind of traveler are you?

It's a question to everybody who likes to travel around. Are you a kind of traveler who likes to buy experience or you the opposite way. Are you a kind of traveler who likes to buy a thing?

For people who have enough budget it's not really a problem when you are in situation where you can buy a lot of expensive souvenirs or getting involve in the new experience of the place has. You can purchase all of them if you want in the same time. But this is for the traveler who only have low budget. When you have a chance to go somewhere new, you might want to spend your money to get some nice and yeah kinda expensive one. But when you realize your money is running out, you get only few left to eat and stay at hotel. And the sad part is you miss your only chance to feel something new that your place doesn't have. Like riding elephant in Thailand, scuba diving in Lombok, watching Barong Dance in Bali. Or you want to buy expensive purse at Singapore, nice jacket at Paris. It's nice when you getting older, you have some souvenir at your home to remember your travel, but the thing is there is more than just a stuff that are so valuable when you want to memorize what have you done in the new place. Experience. Picture speaks more than a thousand words. I believe that what you must get is what you feel new and different about tourism object. Souvenirs and stuff can be purchased whenever you want, even if you are not in that place (export import I guess).
But the real experience is the one that you can may get another time, but sometimes you cannot get another one. Because there is always a first time for everybody.

So what kind of traveler are you?
buying thing or buying experiences?
