Why should one travel the world?

As the son of a U.S. Diplomat, I've had the opportunity to live abroad most of my life in countries such as Cambodia, Australia, South Korea and Malaysia. Through my travels despite the sad goodbyes to friends and family, I learned the importance of being open-minded, resilient and open to a diverse network. When you travel abroad you experience a world you may have never considered or a culture that shows you the diversity of the world. This is important for personal development.
