Tourism is the temporary departure of people to another country. Tourism can have different purposes, but in most cases it involves visiting places of interest or (and) entertainment, recreational activities, hiring a tourist guide and requires appropriate expenses. This type of travel is the most widespread in our country, compared to the others.
Backpacking. Type of travel, which involves minimizing the cost, by rejecting tour operators, independent travel planning, finding hostels, travel by public transport, etc.
Downshifting – reducing transmission, is a type of travel, which involves the rejection of common goods. Downshifters go to countries with lower incomes, such as Thailand, India, the Dominican Republic and other countries. Many of them rent out their apartment before they leave, providing themselves with a passive income that allows them not to work and live at their pleasure.
Volunteering – travel aimed at participation in volunteer programs, which can be both domestic and international in nature. Volunteering involves voluntary work of a person, without any monetary remuneration. Volunteering allows a person to do charitable work, to realize the importance of their own actions and also gives the opportunity to be in constant interaction with people of different cultures and languages (if it is volunteering of an international nature).
A gap year is a sabbatical. This is a period of time, usually a year, which school or university graduates dedicate to learning foreign languages, backpacking (cost-effective international travel), volunteering and gaining new practical skills. If in our country, most people go on to study after school and go to university. Then getting a bachelor’s degree, go to study for a master’s degree, then abroad rarely do so. Many high school graduates go on a year-long journey where they mature, get to know the world as it is. The parents of these graduates usually sponsor the hapierre themselves, because they understand that this is how their child will get back on his or her feet and start an independent life.
Hobo, the itinerant worker, is a term that first appeared in the United States at the beginning of the last century. This type of travel suggests that the journey is aimed at finding work, usually seasonal. As a mode of travel, the Hobo traditionally uses freight trains.
Pilgrimage is travel that is spiritual in nature, aimed at visiting various holy places for the purpose of spiritual self-development.
Thus, travel is a tool that allows us to meet the needs of a person at different levels, reflecting and multiplying what a person has before traveling. Travel can give one knowledge, teach one new languages, allow one to form contacts all over the world, be the basis for admission to the best universities in the world or the basis for creating a large international business, but it can also be a tool for escaping from life, from work, from development, a direct path to hedonism. It is worth realizing, however, that travel simply multiplies what is in a person at the time of travel.
