Novelty is Good for You: Experience the New through Travel.
"Neophilia" or the novelty-seeking trait can be a predictor of well-being, says a recent New York Times article. Understood in another way, being spontaneous and being open to experiencing new things has its benefits.
Think: adventure and fun! And a myriad of new lessons to learn! And one way to experience "newness" is through travel.
So you've been wanting to travel, but really have not been able to. There's always reason not to: no budget, lots of work, family commitments here and there. But travelling need not require a huge budget. Just a little openness and creativity can do the trick.
