The above article from Askmen.com tells you why you should travel.
I have always have the same thoughts as well, not by logic, but by people I knew who are well-traveled. They are usually people that are not so bothered by minor things, and are more open at heart. Something that I really need soon in my life. But I have not done so because I have doubts about myself travelling alone. As I am an introvert, I will always feel awkward when I am outside on my own.
Maybe that is the reason why I am slightly socially awkward in the first place. But I hope to do it soon, regardless of how it turns out, though I am financially tight. I might use one of my bonus and go for a 2 weeks budget trip around Europe. I reckon it might turn out to be a humbling and life-changing experience for many people.
And I believe the best learning experience you can get is only when you travel alone. Unless if you travel with your friends or partner and you are able to absorb the culture and essence of the other country. Travelling in big groups tend to protect yourself in the comfort zone and you are just bringing your culture and habits to the foreign country.
