Why do you travel?

Is it because you wanted to see the world? To appreciate the creations of god? To learn other cultures, engage with people, taste different cuisine, to feel alive? 

I travel because i am searching for something I do not even know what. I travel because I wanted to experience other cultures, to engage in their activities, talk to different people, taste various cuisine, i want to see the beauty in every places I visited. I want to gain friends, and most importantly, I want to discover myself, I want to know myself more, in which I will not be able to do so if I stay in my comfort zone.

I have been travelling for quite while and met several travelers, either solo, group, or with their family and friends. 

I discover that I cannot handle people who are so untidy, who complains a lot, who is slower, in short someone who i feel like an "excess baggage" , i can be very impatient.

Whenever i travel, i always consider the "country's" conduct. If I take trains,  buses, I always give priority to elders, i'm always been kind, nice, and helpful as much as possible, not because I need to fit myself in their world, but because, I want to. It's the gratitude I can give for their kindness to me. 

Each country has its own "good" and "bad" side, as much as possible, I don't take notice of the bad side, because I want to see the goodness. I am not fond of finding fault in everything and then comparing it to other countries. You'll never enjoy if you keep comparing and finding faults.

There's this incident in Jeju island, a korean guy who is apparently a tourist pays for the other seat so he can place his bag. Since the bus is full, other passengers were standing. An old man[looks 75years old] get on the bus, and was standing due to no seats available. A woman, who is also standing, asked the korean guy if he could lend the other seat which his bag occupies to the older man, he said no, and insists he pays for that. The old man seating beside me reacts, told him that " why is that a bag is more important than a person", they've been arguing for quite while, and the standing old man can't stand the argument, and told them to stop and that's its okay. But then, the korean tourist guy, keep talking and saying unpleasant things, until the bus driver lost his temper and join the argument, and soon the other passengers. The korean tourist still didn't give up his seat, until he became the enemy of the bus passengers. It's a pity that he has no concern to his fellow Koreans and obviously has no respect for elders. His reasoning is so absurd. I was really irritated. Because I cannot speak korean much, I just mum.

I have traveled with some people, well, apparently, i cannot handle the other one. For that person possessed everything I hated for a travel companion. She insults the people in our language, which is so bad. She finds faults on everything presented to her. She has no respect at all.  If I am to grow old and be something like that? i'd rather not grow old at all.  I can't keep up with her.   

"Why there are people who cannot decide for themselves. It is so irritating, they keep depending their decisions on other, so when it fails, they have someone to blame. So childish. "
