Writing task 2 - Travel broadens the mind - Ielts - 21/8

It is sometimes said that ‘travel broadens the mind’. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

It is becoming increasingly common for people to get in adventures and travel around the world. Many people believe that making a journey is a way to expand knowledge and experiences. I completely adhere to this idea for the two following reasons.
Firstly, travelling help people fully acknowledge the world. It is a journey to getting to know about other people with different circumstances that will help traveler can learn so much from their life stories. If some people are wondering about life and have many questions without answers, all they need to do is travelling because there is no way better acknowledging life than seeing as much particular life as they can. Travelling provides a different point of view, knowledge about different countries with its cultures, languages, and citizens which enrich people real-life experiences more than any schools. Besides, travelling help people realize how beautiful this world is when they experience the sun sinks into the Aegean sea in Santorini Island when they see the clean and blue Pacific ocean or spectacular views on the top of Gran Paradiso Alps. Therefore, they may not take the planet for granted anymore and regard their life.
Secondly, people also deeply understand themselves through a journey, who they are, what they really desire to do. For some people, they get in adventures not just because of exploring the world, but they can have time for themselves. Through travel, a person can learn about his or her limitations. However, it is a motivation for them to keep learning, trying hard, and sometimes, they need to be skeptical to keep discovering new things. In addition, when you visit a new country with different customs and traditions, it helps people to get out of themselves and their normal routine. It puts them into a mindset of being more adventurous than they normally might be, thus they will learn a different side of themselves along the way. They need to be more open-minded, talk to any kind of people, and they can be more confident.
In conclusion, life is an adventure, and people should go as much as they can. I always think that travel broadens the mind, the horizons and it is the best way to be truly alive.
