Dear Editor
I do believe that people should know more about their country, but travelling abroad has many benefits and is the main reason for broadening awareness of other cultures. The awareness that you achieve from traveling abroad, and enjoying other cultures can lead to a better understanding of your own country. In my opinion you will not realize how much you love, and know about your country until you have traveled or left your country for a long time. I disagree with the theme that the travel magazine published, as I believe people should travel around the world even if they have not seen their own country.
When travelling abroad there is numerous information that you can find out about yourself especially when it comes to what you prefer for instance, the weather; it might not seem to people living in countries with four seasons that they have other options for how and where they want to live. Cold winters are not healthy, and people are getting sick primarily in that season. Travelling abroad shows that there is others ways to live and it is possible to live in countries where it is warm all year round. Exploring different cultures means discovering different foods, and this could lead to finding out your actual favorite food.
For now, it is vital for me to travel abroad, and instead of learning more about the world through textbooks, people should travel and learn more about the world through real experiences. Therefore, I would love if the travel magazine started inducing their readers by telling them how positive it is to travel all around the world, and how much they can benefit from it.

People are getting so used to their own lifestyles neglecting that there are people living in different places who are not blessed with luxuries that other people are blessed with. Travelling abroad will give an appreciation of your own lifestyle and what you have, and a perspective on the

    According to Aesop " Adventure is worthwhile", and traveling is one of the best adventures that people can experience in life. Also, by going to places that you've never been open up your mind to new things, new people, and you learn from it as much as you can. In my case, I'm fortunate to have been able to visit different cities all over the world, but only two of them have completely captivated me, San Francisco, California and Miami, Florida. Even though these two cities are located in the same country, both have many differences such as in the public transportation, food-population, and lifestyle.…

    Throughout my life, I have always been a person who loved traveling. I will always love traveling and someday, I hope to have a job where traveling is a requirement. When I travel, I hoped to come as close to emersion as possible in the time span I’m there. I believe interacting with other cultures can seriously give you a whole new outlook on life and learning perspectives of different cultures and humans always fascinates me which is why, next year, I am planning to take a year off to work at a bed and breakfast in France. People from all over the globe come to bed and breakfasts, which will give me a lot of face time with a lot of different cultures and learn a little bit about everything. My housing and dining will be paid for while I meet people, make lifelong connections and put all the things I learned about in cross cultural communication to work.…

    I am writing this letter to Jeremy Rifkin’s article “A Change Of Heart About Animals.” I disagree. I don’t think we can change the way we treat animals. I think we should just let them be and have them live their own habit. If we change the way we treat animals, than they would be like humans and not themselves. They wouldn’t be just normal animals. I feel that animals should be in their own habit and not become more like humans.…

    "Traveling is a fool's paradise," Ralph Waldo Emerson said. "I have no cranky objection to world travel for the purposes of art, of study, and goodwill, as long as the individual is first domesticated, or doesn't go abroad with the hope of finding something greater that what he knows. He who travels to be amused, or to get something he doesn't have within, travels away from himself…" While Emerson's comments may seem extreme to those who enjoy the occasional trip for leisure, he makes an important point regarding the value of travel from both a scholarly and personal standpoint. Studying abroad fulfills what Emerson sees as the deeper purpose of travel, which I realized last fall semester when I studied abroad at the University of…

    I have always had a knack for traveling. Since a young age I have found comfort in going to places I have never been. Embracing the culture and questioning why things are done a certain way and exploring the incredible world that I am surrounded by. It brings me peace just being somewhere I have never been. I think it is important to be put in situations that you might not be familiar with and learn how to adapt, how to survive on your own. It’s important to go to unfamiliar places and meet unfamiliar people.…

    Marriage is sacred, and everyone deserves to be with the one they love regardless of their sexual orientation. In an article that appeared on October 2, 2012 on the Star Tribune website, you stated that "marriage is sacred" and that it "should be between a man and a woman." Although the former is correct, I hope you can revise your opinion on the latter.…

    Belonging is the finest thing in the world that knows how to belong to oneself. You have to belong to yourself before you belong to society. Belonging is a quite a hard concept, as you can argue that people who don’t want to belong actually "belong" to a group of people who don’t want to belong. But what is belonging? One idea is that you belong when you feel comfortable with people who have similar objectives, goals, and aims as you. But, as i realised while analysing a film in fact it’s for this unit, if you don’t feel comfortable with the group you believe you belong to, then even if you have the same goals for example cricket. Even though everyone’s goal is to win, should the team not befriend you, make you feel like you are excluded from the team, then you don’t really feel that you belong to the team so it’s basically what belonging is about.…

    I am writing this letter in regards to the recent article that was printed in the Sydney Morning Herald earlier this week criticizing the study of Shakespeare in school and how it should be removed from the year 9 syllabuses. One of Shakespeare’s most famous works is the play of Romeo and Juliet which is also one of the world’s best-known love stories. A play such as Romeo and Juliet incorporates profound themes of human nature, father and daughter relationships and the inevitability of fate. In addition, exposing students to a multitude of literary techniques, challenges students with difficult language and style, expresses a profound knowledge of human behavior and offers insight into the world around us. Simply stated, I believe students should study Romeo and Juliet in school because of the incredible value within the play.…

    [Central Idea] It’s important to remember that we are not machines and that we can and do become burnt out. When this happens it can affect everything from our productivity in the work place to our personal relationships with our spouse, children, friends, and family. Depression can become a real side effect and take control of a life we once loved. So it is important to catch a break from our everyday life and take time to “Stop and smell the roses” (Unknown). Travelling to foreign cultures is just one way to experience different thoughts and ideals for dealing with day to day life.…

    Who would not like to travel around the world? “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page” is a famous phrase by Saint Augustine. Almost everyone will enjoy traveling to different countries, experiencing different cultures, and trying different foods. Traveling is one of the most fun activities that someone can do. Some people have traveling as a hobby, and they go to places without any plan just as a backpacker which show that people who love travel do not care if they will sleep in a hotel or in a tent. Travel is not only a unique experience, but it is also very beneficial. Nowadays, people can get information and knowledge about different cultures just using the Internet; however, it is not the same traveling by Internet or hearing from an acquaintance as experiencing by oneself. Traveling is an opportunity to contemplate and enjoy the beauty of the nature and the mystery that the world has to offer. People who travel can notice differences and similarities of each country by experiencing new climates, new laws and other things that are different from their own country. People have been learning about different countries and seeing geographical factors by visiting different places. Experiencing new cultures, meeting new people, and learning about world geography are some of the benefits of traveling outside the United States.…
