行走的力量：趁年轻多去旅行吧！

很遗憾，我生长的地方缺乏多样性，每个人的长相以及他们的行为方式基本相同。旅行时，我知道其他文化的存在。我意识到，与那些长相或行为方式和我的不同的人发展友谊，可以丰富我的人生。

Far from my hometown, I developed friendships with people who were nothing like me, but were exactly what I needed. This taught me to embrace, not fear, experiences and relationships that were outside my comfort zone. It also taught me the importance of communication skills. Let’s just say I paid a lot better attention during college Spanish class after visiting Mexico, and perked up in French class after my time in France and Africa.

在远方，和与我完全不同却正是我需要的人成了朋友。我从中学会了拥抱而不是惧怕舒适区以外的体验与友情，我还懂得了沟通能力的重要性。我想说的是，墨西哥归来的我在大学里更努力地学习西班牙语，法国和非洲归来的我投入更大的热情学习法语。

3. Traveling humbles you enough to realize it’s not all about you.

旅行让你谦卑、关注他人

the older I become, the more I realize I actually know very little about life. It seems the confidence of knowing it all is usually graced upon the young. However, the sooner that bubble bursts, the better; at least in my case. Traveling sometimes puts you in tough situations. You see that the world is so much bigger than your perspective on it. You soon realize the world doesn’t revolve around you. You learn that you really weren’t the big fish in the ocean, but just a tiny minnow in a pothole.
