Still wondering what to give a loved one for Christmas?... You should consider the gift of travel. Here are my five best reasons why travel is the best gift.
1. We already have too much stuff. Do you need to buy more things to clutter up your life? Travel takes up zero shelf space, collects no dust, and will neither be returned nor re-gifted.
2. Life-changing experiences — travel provides encounters with scenic natural beauty; diverse cultures; and unique sights, tastes, and sounds.
3. Bridges of understanding — in a world with so much misunderstanding and division, travel is the best form of diplomacy. It's a small world after all!
4. Lifelong dividends in the form of memories you'll always cherish: the bustle of vibrant cities, snow-capped mountain vistas, walks through serene green forests, unforgettable culinary adventures, face-to-face encounters with classic works of art, and the experience of being a guest in world's most legendary hotels.
5. Quality family time. Families who travel together create strong and lasting bonds across the generations. Multi-generational travel creates precious together time.
