Have you ever felt the urge of going away? Did you ever think that people who are looking for a stable and predictable life were strange? If that is the case, the odds are that you have been bitten by the travel bug. You love to jump in the unknown and explore the world. Samuel Jackson describes traveling as a means “to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.” Let’s see if you are a born traveler.
1.You can be social whenever you want
You can talk to anyone about anything, and at the same time, being alone doesn’t bother you.

2. You are the ultimate planner
You love planning. Prior to traveling to a new destination, you spend hours reading reviews, looking for the best deals and rearranging your itinerary. When you are back from a trip, you immediately start planning for the next one.

3. As a kid, you always dreamt about having a job that will take you around the world.

7. You are curious about the world
You’ve always enjoyed studying cultures that were different than your own. History and geography were your favorite subjects in school, and you usually had decent grades in foreign languages.

8. You value experiences more than material things
You don’t drive the nicest car out there, you don’t wear name brands and luxury is not your thing. Instead, you’d rather spend all your money on a trip to Machu Picchu or and learn how to tango in Buenos Aires. Experiences are always better than material possessions in your opinion.

10. You don’t understand why some people are afraid to fly
You love sitting in an airport and watching people running around with their suitcases and their passports in their hands. You get this weird sensation every time you are near an airport, even when you are just picking up someone.

Even if you have traveled much more than your peers, you feel like there are so many more places you need to discover before you die.

12. You are a naturally positive person
You don’t let negative experiences spoil your morale. When something bad happens to you on a trip, you just tell yourself that it is another crazy story you will tell your close ones when you get home.

13. You don’t like the expression “all inclusive”

14. You are patient
You don’t mind spending hours reading. You have spent countless of hours in transit waiting for the next train or the next plane. A six-hour layover to you is an excuse to visit a new place.

15. You’re willing to try anything at least once
Whether it’s food, a drink or an activity, you are open-minded enough to try new things and you understand that people’s customs and habits can be different from yours.

16. There are some people that you just can’t understand
Not to be judgemental but you have never understood people who have never left their city.
