It seems rather undignified to be listing down reasons to travel, but I'm doing it anyway.
And because I love being excessive, I decided to list down as many as I possible could

- People who travel will have stories. Dozens and dozens of them. Gritty, real-life stories that will live on long after the moment has passed.
- Travel opens your mind. It really is time to break out of your bubble-wrapped world.
- You'll never know what you're missing out on unless you do it. Travel's like that.
- Collect experience, not objects. Travel lets you do exactly that.
- Travel makes you grateful for what you have. And reminds you not to take too many of life's luxuries for granted. (Read: Traveler's Gratitude)
- Postcards. Send someone a warm, handwritten postcard from the edge of the world. You will make their day!
- At the risk of sounding cliched - "Sometimes, you must get lost to find yourself."
- Ah, the joy of night landings in a beautiful city!
- You will meet new people. Wonderful people. People you would have never ordinarily encountered.
- Travel reminds you that the best plans are, indeed, unplanned.
- Traveling alone is one of the single most liberating feelings in the whole world. You've got to do it to know it.
- You will have intense life experiences. Moments that you will remember forever.
- You can travel with as much or as little money as you have. That travel is expensive is a huge myth.
- If you love someone, travel with him/her. It'll help you know each other inside out. No nasty surprises later!
- You know that awful baggage we all carry around called stereotypes? Travel will help you destroy them!
