3 Reasons to Travel While You’re Young

I'm no longer as young as I would want to be but I've started travelling recently and I'm enjoying it while I'm still single and able.

But why travel instead of saving and working your ass off?
1. Travel is best done when you are at your best physical state, i.e. when you are young and healthy.
2. Travel will open your eyes and you'll see the world. This will help you in your studies, work and relationships.
3. Travel will trigger your zest for life, ignite your passion and make you fall in love.

Here are Jeff Goins' 3 Reasons to Travel While You're Young

What do you think? What are your reasons for travelling when you're young? :)

Taipei: Oh Why You So Pretty

Things I love about Taipei:

1. Big white clouds

2. Clear blue skies

3. Warm and helpful people (despite language barrier)

4. Clean streets

5. Green everywhere, dark green huge trees on the streets & densely green mountains

6. Convenient and accessible trains

7. Coffee, coffee, all kinds of coffee everywhere

8. 7-Eleven, Family Mart and OK Mart that has everything except plastic bags (carry your own shopping bag!) 4th country with most number of 7-Eleven in the world!

9. Amazing feast for the eyes: Maokong gondola, CKS Memorial Hall, Taipei 101, Miramar, Tamsui, Fisherman's Wharf, Lover's Bridge, Beitou Hot Springs, Grand Hotel..

10. My girlfriends, my bestfriends Leony and Ayie (missing you Lux!) who gave more meaning and more value to this trip.
