The best way to get to know yourself better, gain confidence in yourself and in other people and raise your self-esteem.
Ever heard about Wanderlust? It's actually a german word which means desire to travel. But this word means so much more.
I won't call it a desire I would call it a need to travel and discover yourself and what's around you. Something inside you keeps telling you to go on exploring and makes you feel anxious when you stop or stay for a long time in the same place.
Sometimes you'll get headache thinking about how many places are still there to be visited and how big the world is, you may feel like you will never be able to see them all and this gives you shivers.
It is a real feeling that can be positive but negative at the same time, makes you feel good when you are on the road but you set goals for yourself that will never quite be met. The more your travel the more you need to and this need takes you down to an addiction. Cause nowadays it is quite impossible to be a traveller for life, pay your bills and be part of the society with this lifestyle, I admire so much the people who actually does but it's quite an utopia.
I can say that I am totally addicted to traveling and when I have to go back home and go back to my real life I get anxiety and get stressed. So I did some research on the matter and discovered that people like me may have may share same or similar life experiences in the past.
On Wikipedia it is said that:
- Wanderlust may reflect an intense urge for self-development by experiencing the unknown, confronting unforeseen challenges, getting to know unfamiliar cultures, ways of life and behaviours or may be driven by the desire to escape and leave behind depressive feelings of guilt, and has been linked to bipolar disorder in the periodicity of the attacks.[7](click to see the website)
- In adolescence, dissatisfaction with the restrictions of home and locality may also fuel the desire to travel.
Since I'm so intereted in this topic I would like to make a survey and I'll share the results with you in my next post.

Happy travelling!
