From ancient times, travelling has always been an avenue to explore other cultures, understanding others which eventually changes our perspective, teaches us tolerance and helps to build relationship across cultures.
With the ground globalization has gained today, exploring other parts of the world spurs patience and maturity from travel experiences that help a traveller to respect other cultures, custom and appearances. .
Unfortunately, the world we live in, urgently needs tolerance and understanding. As we know,there are a lot of crisis in the world sparked by disrespect for other people's culture. e.g.,the extermination of 10,000 Jews,Gaza Strip Conflict,Xenophobic attacks in South Africa e.t.c
A solution to this is accepting others for who they are hence, travelling opens us to the unfamiliar truth. We uncover our preconceived beliefs to what is true and eventually develop the curiosity to acquire more knowledge, therefore breaking the wall that has separated us from one another. The end result of this is that we break free from fear and choose tolerance.
With this, we recognise our differences and appreciate it. Through travel adventures, we come to terms that we are human beings first before culture shaped us to become who we are. Therefore, we must cooperate with one another to manage peace in the world.
