Travel is a real part of our lives now, with enviable Instagram posts and blogs cropping up all day every day. Cheap flights and safer travel mean it’s easier than ever to roam the world. Here are our top reasons you can travel more freely than ever before…
Travel didn’t used to be as effortless as it is today – simply speak to an elderly relative and you’ll discover they didn’t have the travelling luxury that we do now. But we feel like so many people aren’t making the most of it. If you didn’t grow up with a childhood filled with a yearly family holiday, then you might not be as ready to do it yourself as you’ve gotten older. The thought of going through the airport, having to get on a plane, and having to navigate a foreign country can be so intimidating. Because of this, it can be easy to just holiday in the country you live in. However, ith travel more and more accessible to those from all walks of life, it has never been easier to spread your wings and see the world. Here are our top reasons you can travel more freely than ever before (and why you should do it too…)
We’re So Clued Up On Safety
We’re definitely far more clued up on safety than we once used to be. The world is more dangerous than it has ever been, which makes many people wary about travelling because they don’t understand the country they’re visiting. But protecting yourself and whoever you’re travelling with has never been easier. One of the main ways is through travel insurance, which not everyone takes advantage of. All it takes is one little fall that leaves a big cut, and you need a trip to a hospital that could cost you thousands. However, cheap travel insurance will mean it’ll cost you nothing but your excess. It’s nice to have that lifeline to fall back on. Plus, there are now so many ways of reading around the country you’re going to. The government will issue travel advisories, and there are so many articles based on each country you’re travelling to, advising how you can keep yourself safe.
It Can Be Done So Cheaply
We’re free to travel our beautiful world so freely, because it can be done for so little. Travelling used to be a luxury, but now flights can be bought for less than you’d pay to eat a meal out, the same goes with a decent hostel in the country of your choice. So if you really were looking for a quick getaway, it could be done for next to nothing if you go at the right time of year.
There are so many Incredible Locations
We can travel more freely because we have access to some incredible locations around the world. Package holidays are now allowing us to go far and wide, meaning that there really is a holiday out there for everyone.
