There are so many great things about travel.  I could list many.  So, instead of listing all the benefits of travel, I boiled it down to the single most important reason that I value travel.  

For me, it all boils down to time.  When I am on vacation, I feel like my time is my own.  Travel is the perfect excuse to go off grid and off schedule.  I can do whatever I want.  What tremendous freedom!  Time to do as I chose!  Yes!
