This really depends on your definition of 'travel'. Do you just want to go places? See ruins? Meet people? Eat? It all depends on how you define what travel is.

This really depends on your definition of 'travel'. Do you just want to go places? See ruins? Meet people? Eat? It all depends on how you define what travel is. I personally prefer to think of travel as cultural immersion. Jumping into an unfamiliar situation and going gonzo. Live as they live; learn the customs, language, modes of interaction, how to cook the food, how to relax, and so forth. You don't have to travel in the traditional sense to do this, there are many cultures available and accessible within your own country. I'll list a few for you, the military, remote communities, big cities, artistic enclaves, and the list keeps going. Join one. Experience it, learn the good and bad and finally move on, or don't. Rinse and repeat. Experiencing what humanity has to offer give valuable insights. It really don't matter where or who, you can learn something new and if you think about how you can harness that information you can use it to found a successful business or just keep it to yourself for your own satisfaction. If you want to build a startup, what better way to do that than to find an untapped market in connection one or more groups of people. Travel is as much an investment in yourself as formal and self education.
