Traveling is essentially a state of going from one place to another. However, if you ask the traveler, that is, the discovery of a new world... I don't remember when traveling became a passion for me. At the end of a trip I remember, "where will I go next?" The question is starting to gnaw at my brain...
Then I realized that I spent most of my time researching places I had not seen before and thinking about how to get there. A corner of my mind always started working on where to go next. When I couldn't go anywhere for a few months, troubles broke out, I got angry at everything. “My trip has come, I have to go” were the words that stuck in my mouth frequently. If I saw the photograph of a place I had not seen before, I would be talking about it and not dropping its name off my tongue. I prepared myself a list of places to go all the time and started ticking them as they went.
Yes, traveling was addicting to me!
So how should I protect myself from the side effects of this addiction?
Traveling, like any other project, depends on three main sources; money, time, people.
For
The most asked question to me; “How do you travel so much? I have a very easy answer to this: “I don't have a house, I don't have a car-yacht-floor, I don't eat or drink in luxury places, I don't buy that "red" shoe that I like so much. I invest all my money in my travels. When I reach for that “red” shoe, a voice inside me says “that round-trip flight ticket” to me. I give that example because red shoes are the thing I can't stand the most. Which are the cheapest airlines, how to travel cheap, where to find the best hotel for the cheapest are my new areas of expertise.
Time
The other issue is time. "How do you find so much time, aren't you working?" Do I not work at all, and I work hard. I fund my travels entirely myself. Time is a createable concept for me. The weekend is a two-day getaway, a long weekend (only one day off on Friday or Monday), as well as a holiday paradise in our country, holidays, New Year's Eve are all travel opportunities for me. When it comes to travel, it doesn't necessarily have to take weeks.
Human
Finally, humans. So, I want to go but no one comes with me. Take your backpack off without waiting for anyone to come, after a while, people will start to crave to come with you. Even if it is not so, when you get used to traveling alone, perhaps you will not want anyone with you anyway.
I am a travel addict, it continues to increase day by day. The excitement experienced while going to a new place is an incurable addiction with the memories accumulating in the pocket on the way back. Contagious effect, too.

To find the most suitable ticket for all my domestic and international flights. http://www.nhtonline.comI prefer . Since they do not charge commission fees, ticket prices are affordable, and I can compare company prices. I advise.
