The dispute about how to use money wisely is always a prevelent topic of discussion. Some people contend that people should spend money for traveling and vacationing so that they can recharge their energy in order to work more productively. Others believe that people should save money because spending money for traveling is a waste of money and time. I agree with the claim of the latter, however, to some extent, i think that people also need a "break" in life. This essay aims to discuss about the benfits and the disadvantages that people may gain from traveling and vacationing.
First of all, as people feel stressful due to for example work and studies, it is advisable to go on a trip to relieve the stress that they gain from work. Leaving their work and refreshing their mind for a short period of time will not only help them enjoy their life, but it will also help them relax thus, this will make them concentrate better. For example, whenever i am exhausted from work, i take a time off to travel to a foreign country with my friend or my family. By doing this, it helps me to regain energy as i do something that i like, rather than something that i am forced to do. In this sense, traveling is a good method that can stimuate people to work harder again.
Next, people learn and gain a lot of new experiences that are worthy of spending money. When traveling abroad, people greet new people and accumulate new knowlege. Therefore, i do not think that it is a waste of money and i believe that it rather helps people to broaden their sight and life experiences which can develop them in many ways. For instance, i started to learn French because i was very fond of the language after the trip to France. This not only gave me a new insight of a foreign country, but also influenced my life in many aspects.
On the other hand, traveling and vacationing may be time consuming and sometimes extravagant. Before traveling, people spend time to search for destinations and intinery. Also, they may spend unexpected amount of money during the trip. According to my experiences, as my family consists of 4 members, the expenses are very large.
In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages of traveling and vacationing. It may be time consuming and waste of money despite the benefits that traveling can give us. In this regard, I believe that traveling and vacationing are necessary and provides us with valuble experiences.
