Traveling is good for your overall health. Studies suggest that hitting the road can lower your risk of heart problems, relieve stress, and recharge your mind. However, it is not without costs. Traveling can open you to risks that are both costly and troublesome. For example, falling ill during a trip abroad is an expensive experience compared to when it happens at home.

As a traveler, there will be times wherein you might experience being with hundreds of other tourists like yourself—all waiting in line to see the same thing. There’s also the chance that you won’t even have enough room to move freely at tourist spots and not bump into someone else’s shoulder or backpack. If you’ve been in a situation like this, then you’ve stumbled (maybe intentionally) onto one of the worlds most overrated tourist attractions before. 

Traveling is becoming more popular every year. According to the UNWTO or the United Nations World Tourism Organization, the number of international tourists totaled over 1.32 billion in 2017, alone.

But, as with anyone trying something new, being unprepared can have serious consequences, especially when it comes to traveling.

It’s graduation season! Many college students will be bidding farewell to their school along with all the textbooks and requirements. Wearing their toga and a diploma in hand, the fresh graduates will be embracing and experiencing a new and an even tougher life ahead.

There will always be a sense of excitement and wonder whenever you visit a new place, eat a local delicacy, or do something you’ve never done before.
