Cars, trains, and planes, they allow us to move great distances away from family and friends. In a car 20 miles may not seem long but in reality is quite a ways away. Anyone nowadays can travel far in a short amount of time especially away from family. That’s what cars are
Throughout history, the progressions of mankind has given way to a perpetually globalizing world. Globalization, the “process of interaction and integration among peoples of different nations, has strengthened human ties while our race has formed societies in every corner of the globe. As our world becomes more interconnected, the resulting blend of cultures has led numerous societal features to be shared between peoples, blurring cultural division lines. Globalization’s tying binds may frustrate many modern travelers seeking unique and special travel experiences due to the standardization of destinations resulting from increasingly cozy international social relations, but continued and extensive human travel has demonstrated that the essential human urge to move is a product of our search for fulfillment in what is unfamiliar and will not be suppressed by global interconnection.
For some travelling can be a way to escape it all and even find love.
Getting the family together for the holidays may be a little harder when they are 1000 miles apart. Perry Patetic in his passage, claims that it is too easy to move away from the friends and family of our past, this creates a loss in friendship and or relationships. Patetic supports his argument by first explaining why people are able to move so far away. He continues by comparing the differences between a close relationship to a long distance relationship.

Additionally, It is also assumed that tourists travel for pleasure, “that cannot be found within the life-space and how this makes traveling worthwhile” (Cohen, 93). This is connected to tourists because, it is assumed that tourists travel to get-away from the stressors of their own lives, perhaps have a mini-break away from work or from the chaos within their own lives. It is assumed that tourists with a family, wants to travel and enjoy bonding time with family to create new memorable memories that one may not be-able to create in their own town and/or city. Or, it is assumed that young travelers want a romantic get-away to get hitched, or
“Ah, yes,” said Chillingworth, “Traveling can cause one to forget what ails them at home, but no one can escape what waits for them back in their native habitat.”
Perry Patetic in his passage asserts that in today’s fast paced society it is far too easy move around and forget about important relationships. The author supports his decision by first informing the reader with a plethora of options to travel by. He continues by listing reasons why distance between family has a negative effect. The author’s purpose is to deter the ease of travel between people in order to prevent the break in relationships. The author establishes an indignant tone for those of age to travel and live wherever at their own will.

My social context is different from most but not far from nomadic. I’ve moved 18 times in my whole life. The root of the tree stems from my Mom. My Mom was adopted when she was 1 year old from Seoul, Korea. Raised in a town of 7,000 people called Cannon Falls, Minnesota; she longed for a life out of the country town she was raised in. When she was 18 she packed her bags and set out for the city of Minneapolis. My Mom’s wanderlust wasn’t fulfilled even then, she set out for years moving from state to state. Once I was born the lust didn’t end. My Mom taking me on her transcontinental journey equaled my whole life being one giant suitcase. Every year waiting to be hauled off to the next city or state. I still don’t fully understand why we moved so much. Maybe my mom was afraid of missing out on a great opportunity, maybe financial reasons or maybe it was my grandparents influence. My grandparents love to travel. When my Mom was a child; her and my uncle would go on road trips with my grandparents across America. Seeing all the kinds of sites possibly fueled the inner wanderer in my Mom. Being an untraditional wandering family of
Others may think that people are abusing fast transportation to leave all their families and problems behind. “We lose track of old friends that we will never see again”. By leaving where you grew up, you will never have the chance to bump into an old friend you used to have. You
We must demand a world free of racism and bigotry and prejudice so that we—and generations after us—may enjoy all the abundance that travel offers, the beauty of the world that is open and rich and diverse in its people and cultures and geographies. And we must, in the midst of our many differences, find and celebrate our commonalities, our oneness. We must recognise that we are all on a journey. Whether we are moving across oceans or just a few kilometres, or in our mind’s eye, into a completely different world, whether we are doing so due to free will or circumstance—we are all
A journey for me means discovering the histories of different places, which are invariably rich with stories, mythical or real. Trips, both long and short, mean learning about different architecture styles through the heritage landmarks of the countries, I visit. Moreover, a trip to a new place – urban, rural or suburban, allows me to interact with the local people, mingle with them, immerse in their cultures, taste their cuisines, understand different perspectives and take in the place. Therefore, I will always travel. I visited Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong and Macau with my family; Nepal on a school trip. (98 words)
Who does not love to travel? The discovery of new places, new cultures and new people can be quite inspiring. Creating new memories with friends and family that you can express to others.

I recognize that many people would have a similar response, yet my strong desire to travel made me consider deeply as to why I had such a tenacious want for it. I believe one of the reasons why that deep down, we still hold on to the ancient survival instinct of migration, which can never really be satisfied. I believe that this could also hold true for me. As I think more about it, I find that it was not really the destinations that I want to go to but the means of the journey that I wish to experience. My husband is the one who made me conscious of this. He likes to travel and see places as well, but just didn’t understand the concept of people
A practically bewildering pace of mechanical advancement has delivered an abundance of new business openings in the worldwide travel biological system, both enhancing and extending the universe of travel. The race to build up a driverless auto, bring computerized colleagues into our homes, or understand our online information all guarantee to change the way we travel. Be that as it may, in the meantime, features are loaded with terrible signs. From fear monger assaults crosswise over Europe and heightening strains in the South China Sea to the protectionist senses of another US organization and the unknown domain of Brexit, our recognizable world, for good or awful, is unraveling. "Technology has never held more guarantee for the travel business," says Alex Luzarraga, VP of Corporate Strategy at Amadeus. "By the by, there is a feeling of social orders being broken, of shamefulness and imbalance, and an absence of chances for some individuals. As innovation progresses, the norm is being overturned.
