Travel isn’t just about crossing borders; it’s about crossing boundaries within ourselves. It’s the world’s finest education, not about places but about people—about understanding, empathy, and discovery. Every journey rewrites our perspective, giving us fresh eyes to see the familiar and the foreign alike. So toss out the guidebooks, shake off the well-worn paths, and let the soul of each destination pull you in. It’s these fleeting, unscripted moments that make travel transformative, the quiet magic that lingers long after the journey ends.
