Blog Topic 2: Travel

I am truly agreed with the author's quote. Traveling is a valuable tool in educating yourself on other cultures and lifestyles. Personally, I am taken valuable lessons of traveling abroad: self-discipline, Independence and accept the other person. Also the most important lesson is that you discover yourself and your needs. It is an opportunity to be conscious of American culture. I learned how adjusted my lifestyle with American culture such as new foods, different traditions and beliefs and different rules of etiquette you should be adapted with all these things in order to be enjoying. Traveling abroad gives me chance to meet a lot of strangers; maybe they become the new friends. In my opinion, it is very easy when I communicate with others who have experience with other foreign cultures.
