Travel with a companion or travel alone? #1 (permalink) Thu Jul 29, 2010 17:16 pm   Travel with a companion or travel alone?
 

While travelling we get interact with people of different attitudes, cultures and habitats. With the interaction of different people, we not only drive to our destination but also we can discuss and learn about the things going around every remote corner of the world. Some people I am sure would believe that it is a good idea to have a companion and others would disagree. I, myself prefer that there are many good reasons to have a companion while travelling and equal number of good reasons to travel alone.

With the companion we can share our feelings, multiply our joys and divide griefs and sorrows. Likewise when we see a scenic beauty, old monument and regarding the selection of things we can share our feeling and also get an advice from them. It is not possible to experience all this without a companion, it would be like winning the world but losing the kin. For example, when I and my friend Nikhil have been to Agra, we visited Taj Mahal which is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. As it got fame all over the world many foreign people visited regularly, one of the person asked as regarding the importance of this old monument. I and my friend shared whole thing that we learnt from our professors and elders.

Planning with friends or families would save our budget and time. In long journeys it is always advisable to have a company. We can enjoy and play games with their company. In contrast, we feel bored during the whole journey with out a companion. As we people cannot go on talk with the strangers. For example when Iwent to tour for Mysore with my college mates we people enjoyed a lot playing cricket, watching movies and also playing cards during travel.

In contrary, travelling alone will develop our self confidence and ignores away fear regarding the new places and new people. For example when I was studying 9TH standard i have never been away from my home town, but my father advised me to take IIT coachoing in Bangalore. At first I was so afraid of going away from home but my father fostered me and I reached safely over there. In this way I i ignored fear and shy.

In summing up, we can share our joys and sorrows, plan our budget with the help of a companion. Likewise we can also build our confidence and drive away fear regarding the new places and people.
