The globalization and technological
advancement have made our life easier than ever before. In current life, more
people wish to spend their free time to travelling. However, I agree with the
idea that today more people are travelling than ever before, because in my
opinion, easy access of information nowadays like travelling promotion
information and improvement transportation fasilities.
The reasons of travelling are mainly, because
availability and convenience of facilities. Improvement transportation
information like booking online for the flight, and train tickets makes our
life easier, because can order tickets at home. For example, when I go to solo
city with family using train transportation, before I booking train tickets
with traveloka application that made it easy for us, because we not buy the
tickets come directly in the station but at home, I used the application to
booked the tickets. So, there is no need tired come to the station just to buy
a ticket. Traveloka application there are also many promotion travelling, but I
never try the promotion travelling. Other reasons, many companies has increased
export and import activities due to the globalisation. As a result, their
employees have to do business travelling to other cities or overseas. Travelling
can also in thrust by passion to find out what was there and have the chance to
learn a new culture.
There are great benefits with travelling. Culture is an
important aspect of travelling to a different place with different culture. For
example, when I travelled from Jakarta to Solo, I get fun experience like try
various typical culinary solo most delicius like nasi liwet, gudeg solo,
serabi, and then I can learn the java language, well adaptation to the
environment there. So, I can understand typical culinary, traditions, and
language have its own unique every city. Other benefits of travelling is
refreshing and eliminates boredom. Travelling also help people in releasing
stress, because the people who live in big city, stressed with hectic schedule
and travelling will help them in loosen the tension. A wonderful place can be
visited by tourists and they can learn the advanced knowledge about different
culture, because travelling give the chance to get acquainted with different cultures
and traditions, this is also benefits to learn about history and new
experiences.
In conclusion, I agree that today more people are
travelling than ever before, because globalization and technological
advancements make everyone are travelling for various of purpose. Some people
are taking the travelling for business activities, or holiday. Travelling is
also a positive activity because people will get a lot of benefits from doing
the activity.
