I live vicariously through Anthony Bourdain. His extravagant expeditions around the globe fill my mind with dreams. “No Reservations,” his eight season series, travels through some of the world’s most hidden treasures. The people he meets share culture and tradition with him and hopefully, I will soon have a similar experience. I have always wanted to travel abroad. I find myself watching the travel channel almost everyday. I believe that I will be a better doctor and person if I am afforded this opportunity.

The idea to travel struck author Carl Hoffman a year after reading about horrific travel accidents for tourists who were traveling abroad. He reads about multiple accidents such as; many people dying from a ferry sinking in Bangladesh, an “adrenaline junkie who collects passport stamps and thrives on dysentery inducing street food.” After reading about all of this news, Hoffman decides he wants to gain some perspective on how dangerous traveling is for most of the world. He decided to plan a 159 day worldwide trip traveling through Colombia, Kenya, India, Mongolia, Afghanistan and Los Angeles.

Growing up my family didn’t do much traveling. Our travels consisted of short road trips, lots of laughter, fun and adventure. We weren’t a privileged family; we were quite the opposite. Although we lacked in the financial department, I don’t recall ever feeling like we did. This could’ve been because my head was always in the clouds but it probably had a lot to do with how much love there is in our family. As I grew older I started to take notice of where my friends were going to spend their summer or winter vacations. While mine, were going to be spent mostly home. These were the times I spent dreaming about where I would travel to if I only had the money.

He argues that people should treasure their home place and take necessary measures to improve its image (Emerson 44). Travelling presents the actual nature of other people’s creations and inhibits the traveler’s ability to come up with new designs. Emerson’s main argument in travel is that self-reliant people refrain from moving physically to historical sites. Instead, such people allow their minds to stray to such places and imagine how it could look like. In presenting this argument, Emerson insists that people should never be contented with the achievements of other people (43).
