Why do we travel?

“We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again – to slow time down and be taken in, and fall in love once more.” - Pico Iyer

We travel to get to know different places in the world. We like to travel to be able to know the different cultures, religions, food, and languages of countries. We also travel to learn new things and meet a lot of new people. Traveling is also a fun experience. You get to try things that you're not normally used to. You're also in a different environment that you usually don't get to live in. So, while you're having fun enjoying a country, you're also able to learn about the culture of the country as well.
