Traveling provides unique life experiences that allow for personal growth. When traveling, people step outside their comfort zone and are exposed to new cultures, customs, foods and ways of living. These experiences challenge travelers in ways that help them learn about their own strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes. Travelers also gain interpersonal skills like communication, patience and sociability through interacting with locals and other travelers. Networking happens naturally while traveling as well, as interactions are needed to navigate new places, and these connections could lead to future opportunities.

Life is all about experiences.
And unlike material things, experiences stay with us no matter
where we go. Finding ways to make the most of our life experiences is a challenge that we face every day. As human beings, we like to put a value on the things we pursue. We like to feel that what we are doing has a meaning. This purpose is important to our well-being, as it’s from those experiences in life that we learn and grow. Pursuing what we love brings us invaluable life lessons about ourselves and the world around us. What is there more to love than traveling? Traveling is a unique experience as it's the best way to unplug from the pushes and pulls of daily life. It helps us to forget about our problems, frustrations, and fears at home. During our journey, we experience life in different ways. We explore new places, cultures, cuisines, traditions, and ways of living. We could never experience these things at home. This is why travel is such a unique and invaluable life experience. Traveling often involves stepping out of our comfort zone and experiencing new things. These new experiences are different from our daily routine activities and help us grow on a personal level. Each travel journey brings unique situations and challenges to overcome. For example, when you are traveling solo you may be challenged to become more responsible and independent. By dealing with these situations, you will discover your own strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, etc. This self-awareness is important to your personal growth and discovering who you really are. This are some of the key takeaways that I learned from attending the CPU accredited webinar. As our speaker have mentioned a lot of times, she experiences life through travelling, and I really admire that. Not only that she is earning money by doing so, but she is also enjoying her life at the same time. Basically, traveling is many experiences in one. The life experiences we gain from traveling cannot be compared to most things we experience while staying at home. So get out and explore! It is generally easier to meet people when we find ourselves in the same ‘unknown’ situation. We are in a new environment and are more open to sharing experiences, tips, and advice on where to go, what to do, etc. This makes starting a conversation with other travelers particularly easy. Our openness to meeting new people will make us more sociable. In addition, we have the opportunity to practice our language skills while traveling. Whether we are meeting fellow travelers or engaging with the locals, we will often be forced to communicate in a different language than our mother tongue. However, if we don’t speak a common language, we are in for a real challenge. It takes a lot of patience, careful communication, and listening skills to make sure we are understood well. With the kind f field that we have now in Human Resource, we can associate different experiences when travelling to our assets in our career. When interacting with fellow travelers and locals, we are subconsciously networking. Being in a new place requires interactions, whether it to ask for directions, to check into our accommodation, or to engage with a local guide during a day activity. Networking is a skill that we pick up naturally while traveling, even if we are not intending it. These connections we make along the road might be useful in the future. They may open doors to new job opportunities or long-lasting business relations.
