Why should man travel at least once a year?

 It's not only about showing the best destinations in the world to visit, but also about giving reasons why it is good and healthy to travel recreationally at least once a year, wherever it is.

They say that for their health, men should go out with their friends at least twice a week. So you might as well say that having a beer, watching a soccer game or just sitting and chatting with them is almost doctor recommended. We believe that for good, or rather excellent health, you should also travel - whether with friends, a partner, family or alone - at least once a year.

Why? Because when you travel you not only relax and break the routine and you are much more willing to open your mind, you also get to know other cultures, their customs, their language, their history, and those are things that you could read in books -or much faster- google on the internet to soak up knowledge, all those discoveries will never compare if you enjoy the experience in first person, that is, there is nothing like something totally unknown that catches your attention and you go and discover it yourself, feel it, smell it, look at it, taste it and listen to it.

Traveling gives you something to talk about, makes you more independent and at the same time changes the way you look at life; because what if on your next trip you realize that you liked Vang Vieng in Laos so much that you would like to live there, and you decide to look for a job there, what if you fall in love with someone on your visit to Mont Saint Michel in France and decide to start a new life there or anywhere else in the world, what if you realize that life can be short and you decide to spend the rest of your time traveling? What if you realize that life can be short and decide to spend the rest of your time traveling, what if you come back with a new perspective and decide to finally get away from everything that doesn't do your existence any good, or simply and quietly, would you mind coming back from a trip happier?

Or maybe nothing happens and you just come back with a new experience and the rest of having been in a new place, but that's awesome too! And doctors should definitely prescribe it at least once a year.
