Travel goes beyond just grabbing a souvenir. It gets into your heart and soul, and opens your eyes to a world beyond your front porch. Travel encourages you to connect to others of different races, cultures and religions through unique experiences with art, food and more.
And if you don’t have that sense of wanderlust already…these Ted and Tedx Talks will inspire you to book the plane ticket today, get outside and travel more.

Travel More & Buy Less. – Luis Vargas
(Disclaimer: At about the 14:28 mark, he does use the F word. It doesn’t take away from the great message of the talk, but since I am a mama and a family blogger, I want to let you know in case there are little ears around 🙂 )
