You always have an overflowing bucket list!
Do the pictures of places on earth make you go weak in your knees?
Do you always keep day dreaming about destinations you want to visit?
Do you add more places to your bucket list, and then you actually tick out of it?
Well if that is the case, you, my friend, are a born traveler!
Now, if you think that everyone likes new and beautiful places, and what’s so special about it, that is not the case. Only a true travel enthusiast can experience such insane enthusiasm to make real scene from traveling dreams.
You have an affinity for languages & culture!
Those who make great travelers tend to have a natural affinity for the new languages and cultures.
These are the people who keep joining language classes every six months, without a real reason, in a hope that one day they will visit Europe!
There are also other people who like to strictly be in their comfortable surroundings, and only visit the places that they know.
If you can’t identify with this category of people and like exploration, you are definitely a born traveler.
You don’t mind meeting new people!
Traveling involves interesting, and sometimes awkward interactions with strange people.
While a normal person would dread such situations, but if you are a true traveler, you will cherish the same.
Meeting new people, the natives of the places you visit comprises an integral part of the real travel experience.
Talk and stay with strangers to know about their culture, tradition and rituals is the symptom of a real travel.
After all, if you want to experience a place, the best way you can do it is by seeing it through the eyes of the locals, staying with the locals, and eating with the locals!
You don’t mind spending and investing in experiences!
Let’s face this. Traveling involves substantial financial investments. It can be part of your recurring income or your long assembled savings.
You would agree to spend that money on travel, only if travel means something special to you, something more than what it would mean to a “tourist”!
Therefore, if you are the kind of person who likes to spend the hard earned money on experiences of travel, and not on other materialistic investments, you definitely qualify to be a traveler by heart.
You like to eat different cultural foods!
You seek for different hotel, restaurants and dhaba to taste different dishes.
Whenever you visit to any town, you like to taste special dish of the place.
You like to cook dishes with local people of the place where you visit.
A born traveler born with the craving for various food and this shifted to another food with the experienced of eating last craved food.
You can fall asleep anywhere!
Yes. It may sound like a joke, but to be a true traveler, you have to be a person who “can fall asleep anywhere”. And we mean it, as literally as it can get!
Travel is no bed of flowers. There will be days when you will have a king sized bed to rest your back upon, and then there will be days when you will be deprived of even a decent place to sleep.
But we know, if you are a true traveler, you do not mind any of it! You can shut your eyes in an airplane, or on a bus, train or a cab – doesn’t matter.
So, have you qualifies?
Well, a liking for the lowest traveling experience is a god’s gift which must be embraced; it is also a skill that can be cultivated with time.
To all the not so natural travelers, the only thing that we can say is that trying it, it will change your life!
