WHY TRAVEL IN A GROUP??
TRAVEL
What is TRAVEL or rather why do we need to travel? Did any
of us really think of this question? Not really, we as individuals are so busy
in our everyday life that we tend to or usually forget the basic meaning of
most of the words that can really make our life. What basically travel is? Is it just moving out of the house with our bag
and baggage to the assigned destination through any mode of transport? If that
is travel in our daily life we do go to office, to the market, to the grocery
store as well, can these be termed as travel as well? THINK!!! We at present
belong to an era where most of the things are materialized and we look at
things from the third eye (mobile lens) rather than make good use of the eyes
that we have.
People travel on a daily basis through the same route but
remain ignorant of the things that pass them, rather they spend time on browsing
the same thing on the internet– this is the irony of life today. We eye for something that is not important
and ignore those which we have with us.
It’s time that we open our eyes and relives the life that we
have. Let us just not select destinations over the internet, reach there and
come back with closed eyes a but let us enjoy the beauty of this beautiful
world at any corner at any place with an
open mind and eye.
HAVE ANYONE EVER THOUGHT OF WHY “TRAVEL??”
Basically in today’s scenario we do not have time to think
of why we do something, we do it to impress others or we do it because others
are doing it. It has become a trend to live somebody else’s life rather than
living our own.
Let us start a new journey today, let us analyze something
different today. “Have you ever noticed any child going to school?” The child
is curious to know about the things that he or she sees for the first time or
on a daily basis, the child is loaded with questions and interprets things in
his or her own way. The child not only travels but also does an in-depth analysis
of the things around him. Let us be the child again the way we were and enjoy
our destination.
Education refines our life and TRAVEL has always been a part
of this educational process. Travel when a part of any education process exudes
pleasure and happiness.
Let this beautiful world be a book with variant colors and
let us read this book with an open mind. Life should not be confined to the
four walls of a room nor should education be confined to books. It’s important
to be knowledgeable than informative. Let us not remain informative regarding
destination but be knowledgeable while we travel.
Travelling not only opens our eyes but also opens our mind.
A person travelling will not need a book to be knowledgeable rather he will be
a book in himself to be a storyteller. Why depend on someone else to know what
the things are that are around us, let us learn something new each day, let us
not be confined when we travel , let us EXPLORE.
EXPLORE LIFE WHILE WE TRAVEL
It is rightly said “Journey of a thousand miles begins with
a single step”. When we travel we not only gain information or knowledge to be
precise we live moments, we cherish these experiences throughout our life.
Travel explore should not be confined to big destinations but we need to detail our eye in our daily destinations as well.
Make the life that we live worth living and explore it for a
meaning.
BE A TRAVELLER RATHER A TOURIST
We all travel in our everyday life, we all visit
destinations as well, but how many of us are travelers rather than tourists??
Now the query is “WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TRAVELLER AND A TOURIST”?? No
one has ever thought of it, for every common man it’s basically two sides of
the same coin. But technically it’s a traveler’s quest to explore that makes
those places re-visit by tourists over ages. We need to feel the air of travel
for any long lasting effect…... Their words are personified not only through
lens but with closed eyes as well.
WHAT BASICALLY IS A GROUP
What groups basically are? What are they for? We as
individuals are not meant to live the life of a recluse; we at every step of
life are dependent on someone. Whenever we refer to groups we not only refer
them to life but also in travel. Group
travelling has many advantages than travelling alone. Some people might prefer
travelling all alone just to avoid the interference of others’ as he or she
might be a silent traveler, but travelling in a group always gives you the
sense of security.
WHY TRAVEL IN A GROUP
When the topic of travel comes individuals have different
tastes, some like to travel alone while others prefer a group. In a group some
are comfortable travelling with their family where experimenting is not so much
on the cards. While there are some who likes to EXPLORE and NOT just TRAVEL.
They experiment going out with friends, meet new people and exploring the life
of the unknown.
There are few who like to travel all alone, be in own cocoon
and be a silent spectator. Do much do they enjoy life travelling all alone
being aloof remains a hard question to answer. For them its travel is their
journey of life, it’s their companion, their soul mate.
But there are some questions that might trouble the group
travelers, is travelling alone SAFE? Can there any discussion relating to this?
There cannot be arguments but opinions regarding how safe travelling alone is.
Travelling alone has its own advantages and disadvantages
but now let us focus WHY TRAVELLING IN A GROUP IS IMPORTANT.
In today’s hectic schedule travelling is a boon to distress
oneself. A break away from life lets you discover the new way of living.
Travelling with a group with family of friends can be
extremely rewarding, and it can save you lots of money. Travelling in a group
not only adds glamour in your trip but also allows you to make new friends.
Travelling in a group reduces expenses as all will be sharing the expenses of
the trip. Group travelling not only allows getting discounted rates in hotels,
restaurants but also gives you group discounted bookings from airlines or
travel agents as well.
When we talk of group travel apart from providing discounts
the biggest advantage is SAFETY. Ever thought of it? Yes many people prefer
group bookings for safety purpose. When we travel alone in any new location we
are bound to take care of our self. But when we are in a group we feel safe and
protected. As the saying goes “many hands make work lighter” – whenever we are
in a group are well equipped to encounter any trouble. Here we can cite the
best example of the stories related to strength. When we stand in a group we
get ideas of exploring new avenues any tackling with any situation.
UNITED WE STAND
We come alone and we die alone – then why do we need someone
to share our life and responsibilities? Is it really possible to live the life
of a recluse? This is one question that has had different opinions from
different sects of people.
As the very old story of the old man and his five sons goes
– “The old man was on his dying bed and had called upon all his sons and had
asked them to break a bunch of sticks. None could break that bunch of stick
individually but was only possible when they had worked together on it”. This
simple story from life teaches us that we as individuals are not possible to
live all alone. We can always face any problem when we are united rather than
alone.
GROUP BOOKINGS
Destinations have never been a benchmark for choice. A small
village in the remote of India can be as exciting as any trip for some to any
International destination. As the saying goes “Beauty lies in the eye of the
beholder”.
We have dealt with the advantages and disadvantages of
travelling in a group; let us now see what GROUP BOOKINGS deals with. When we
talk of group bookings we should start seeing its advantages from the root
level. Proper care should be taken when we are planning any group with elders
and kids.
FAREHAWKER for GROUP BOOKING
Whenever the name of GROUP BOOKINGS comes FAREHAWKER stands
our being the pioneer for group bookings only. FareHawker has been in the
market of group bookings since its inception. It not only provides discounts
for group fares but also takes care of the group where only girls travel. It has set a bench mark where group travel is
concerned.
LASTLY, we all travel to different destinations; some prefer
travelling to the same destination either alone or in a group; while some does
not prefer the word TRAVEL because for them TRAVEL is confined to visit; they
prefer to EXPLORE unknown destinations in a group especially to know new places
and people. With positivity we end to pen here and start our new journey to explore;
to make our life worth living with the moments that we make through the journey
called TRAVEL, explore you wings to the horizon.....
