What I learned from traveling..

(im sure fellow wanderers can relate to these)

1. that there is more to eat & enjoy other than sinigang and adobo. there are chicken rice, tomyam, nasi lemak, pad thai, mee siam, lala & สาคูแคนตาลูป.. 

2. that you'll only know how strong,  wonderful & capable you are once you're out of your comfort zone. when you're out there on your own & everything seems like new & scary - the warrior & survivor in you comes out surprisingly.

 

3. that there are point of views other than yours. people do things differently. their beliefs may or may not resonate with you. you may not understand their ways but you'll gain a good perspective of how the world operates.

 

4. that there is more to life than gossips, celebrity dramas, office conflicts & politics. there are hanging bridges, sacrifices, off the beaten tracks, wonderful locals, crazy rules, lost luggages, new found friends & more!

 

5. that the best stories are not just found in the books i've read but in between my passport pages.

 

how about you? what have you learned so far? feel free to share your insights...
