4 Signs You Need to Travel ASAP

4. You Hang Out With Travelers

If tasting the food, watching movies about the culture and reading about the traditions isn’t enough for you, you end up meeting people face to face!

You open your house up for couchsurfers, so you can have a constant stream of different people visiting you and telling stories about the world. They’re happy with your generosity and usually bring gifts or cook tasty meals for you so you quickly feel as if you were traveling with them.

You research about the nearest hostels and pay them a visit. You realize that the majority of them have bars and the crowd is exactly what you’re looking for: a mix of culture, age and wisdom. You find yourself drinking with foreigners once a week, improving your language skills and your knowledge about the world.

By the time you experienced all the withdrawal symptoms, you will have bought a ticket to another continent, a round the world ticket or you will be visiting the country next to yours as quickly as you can, even if it’s just for a few days.

The important thing to remember is that the more you travel, these symptoms become part of your personality. It’s not that you just crave traveling — traveling is part of your life and you’re naturally attracted to it.

Before you know it, you’ll have a selection of foreign friends and different stamps on your passport. So the question is: when are you hitting the road again?
