I am just weird though! My husband loves to travel though and I agree with Atabon that it can deliver people from stress. That is exactly what it does for him.

I think seeing people in different contexts can bring things out about their personality that we haven't noticed before. The same thing occurs when they interact in different social settings. We learn more about each other the more we're thrown into diverse settings together.
I wouldn't say they 'deliver' but they're useful in coaxing qualities and personality traits to the surface.

- Latest Review: Why Me: Trash Collector, Mental Issues by Nikolay N Bey
I've read somewhere that staying in one place is like reading a one-paged book. I'd like to travel if and when I already could to open my mind more, to gain new experiences, to take a breather and break the monotony, to see new places that I used to just read and hear about, connect and re-connect, and to spend those moments of discovery and adventure with my loved ones. And, if those reasons weren't enough, some scientific data also seemed to show that travel makes one more creative and prepped for new ideas (good for a writer), among health and other well-being benefits.
Of course, we always have to make do with what's available to us to begin with, so I agree that we could always go back to the basics if we don't and can't have other means of going for otherwise. I look forward to when I could travel with my family in the future. There's always hope, which is one that I'd hold on to for now.

The truth is most times, you leave people and places to new people and places. It does help to relieve stress and hurt when you leave people that are responsible for this to other places. Sometimes you feel even happier too but it doesn't mean the hurt disappears. You also learn new things, make new memories, etc.
