Great Escape Radio Episode 16: The Benefits of Travel

In this episode, Great Escape Publishing Director, Lori Allen highlights the benefits of travel.

She says, "I learn more about myself when I'm in travel situations than I do in practically any other time in my life. I meet new people, see new things, try new foods, and find more time to read."

Travel is a great way to make time slow down.

Travel can be challenging, but it offers many benefits…

…Handling the challenges of travel help you find yourself and grow as a person

…Traveling brings more experiences into your life

The programs offered by Great Escape Publishing teach people how to experience a destination in a completely different way than a typical tourist. Everything taught in the GEP programs comes from people who are living, working and having a lot of experience in those fields as travel writers or photographers. Lori is a conduit for those professionals.

"When you're documenting your travels as a travel writer or a photographer you'll discover things and have moments where you will feel lucky to be alive and blessed to be in your own skin," explains Lori. "You'll know what a place smells like, you'll taste the air – that doesn't really happen when you travel as a typical tourist. You appreciate a destination so much more."
