A person who loves travelling a lot and heads home has so much excitement in his heart to share what he had experienced in his different adventures from a particular destination. Just like a person who travels first time and shoots poetic and magnificent sceneries, the feeling is just awesome. There are various topics to share about; the food, the people, and the fun.


These memories and experiences can actually turn into some earning opportunity if you write and talk about the experience. Why is that so? Because people are simply entertained and love reading travel memories! They get to discover and reach places they had never been, lose themselves in what they read and also share the same excitement with you.


Here are some of the reasons why you need to blog your travel experience.


Sending the message across.
Sometimes, travelling can make some realizations in your personal life. Going to a far away place is often times triggered by some personal reasons aside from relaxation. These reasons whether personal or leisure can be a good theme for you to blog about and send whatever the message is across your readers. 


Business purposes.
For other travellers, visiting fantastic places and destinations is worth some business interests. They generally write down whatever experience they had encountered, good or bad, the delectable cuisine, tradition and culture of the people and the like. These can be used for a travel book, a magazine or even a website which can be a good business idea.


Selling.
What about selling? It is basically writing and blogging your travel tours, find a blog site if you have none that pays. They will pay you for sharing what you had learned and experienced on that travel journey. Your travel blog will earn revenue in this manner.


See, you get to enjoy the trip to various places and countries, and still earn from your blogs. Therefore, the next time you take that adventure trip, be ready to take down notes, shoot pictures and talk to people you meet. Who knows you will be publishing your own book in the near future.  That’s more than enjoyment you gain, you also have the opportunity to earn.

It is marvelous to take a trip and explore new places and things with family and friends. But sometimes it is also a challenge to take a trip alone one time or the other. Traveling alone can be a good experience for anyone, whatever our personality is, because it can enhance your personal outlook in life whoever you are.


Here are some good reasons why:


No worries. It can be quite demanding to plan a trip with a companion considering you need to make adjustments and coordinate everything with him. Traveling alone lessens the worries by just simply going and planning by yourself, and simply prepare your backpack and go.


Explore more. It is true that there are some things that you would love to try doing that you haven’t done in your entire life. A skydiving maybe or mountain hiking, or just simply eating dishes you can’t even pronounce. You don’t need to think if somebody with you will share the same interests as you would do.


Knowing yourself. If you hadn’t tried going by yourself, now is the time that you will realize that spending the time alone can give you more time to know some great things in yourself. It is more of a soul-searching, that there are more things you can do and accomplished only by yourself, without being dependent on anybody.


New acquaintances. If you are the outgoing type, this trip can give you the chance to meet new friends and get to learn new things from them. Being alone can be more approachable compared to being in a group. It would be nice to talk with folks you meet down the road, but just be sure to be extra careful to know if the people look and feels dangerous.


Savoring time. Deciding to have some relaxation like taking a spa longer than you want will not burden a companion if you are alone. You don’t have any obligation to anyone but yourself and won’t even waste the time waiting for your company in whatever he wants to do that you won’t enjoy either.

If you’re a fanatic of soccer and are planning to attend the 2022 FIFA World Cup, then you’d better not go to Doha just for the sport or you’re just plain crazy. Aside from the affluent sports cars and the towering skyscrapers, there is a whole lot more to encounter in Qatar’s metropolis. Here’s a few.


The first thing to do upon arrival is to grasp the subtlety of the fusion of deserts and a city. Ride a dhow cruise, a local boat typical in the Indian Ocean, and ferry across the Doha Corniche during night time to witness the urban lights of the metropolitan. It seems that it is not so popular for the visitors to do the dhow cruise yet in Doha.  I should have done this when I was in Qatar.  Also, if you fancy the majesty of deserts because of the movie ‘Aladdin’, then a desert safari far from the high-rises is ideal for you.


Because of the rapid modernization of Qatar, the Arabian lifestyle is steadily disappearing. So how can we still experience this? Fortunately, at the heart of Doha lies the more than a 100-year-old Souq Waqif or ‘standing market‘. It’s an open marketplace which sells distinct local products such as spices, clothing, pets and etc. Watch out for its occasional art galleries, festivals and concerts!


The historical Persian Gulf surrounding the city has been a prime melting pot of civilizations for thousands of years. The Museum of Islamic Art, Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art and the Qatar National Museum will take you through the evolution of Qatar’s politics and culture.


Lastly, the most astonishing feature of the topography of Doha is the Pearl. It is a land reclamation effort for residential and tourism purposes and is situated on the coastline of the Persian Gulf. The islands in it have unique themes such as its Qanat Quartier which emulates the canals of Venice. Foreigners can actually reside in the Pearl permanently.


Doha isn’t just rich because of its country’s oil reserves. It has these landmarks which epitomize the gilded culture and history of Qatar.

I had experienced the deserts and sand dunes of Saudi Arabia when I was in Riyadh.  Once I was able to tour the Red Sands of Riyadh and as well as the famous Edge of the World.  You can do these trips if not summer in Riyadh.  The dry surroundings of this country look very interesting to me and can take you to the historic times of this prominent Arab country.  If you are planning to visit in Saudi Arabia any time soon for work or side-trip Umrah reasons, don’t reschedule your journey because you can do and see many things when in Saudi Arabia.  You can make your residence in Riyadh an enjoyable one while earning some good cash at work.


The Riyadh National Zoo

I hope I had visited this, but it seems the animals here are so popular only on winter months.  I have heard that the animals are housed inside an air-conditioned facility on summer days.  It is one of the major zoos in Saudi Arabia.  The zoo is believed to have kangaroos, elephants, monkeys, and many others.



The National Museum of Riyadh

I think I had visited this two or three times when I was in Riyadh to accompany some friends.  It is located in the King Abdul Aziz Historical Center.  The Riyadh National Museum is a two-storey building that houses a wide array of relics of both the past and present, including manuscripts and exhibit boards.  The museum is known for its great presentations, and I think a lot of people visit this.  I just remember it is quite tiring to visit this museum.


Al-Maktaba Park

I have seen only in passing this square situated in the Olaya Street, Riyadh.  In a view, it covers a scenic spot looking at the Al Faisaliyah Tower.  The park has a grand history for its visitors.  It has a out of this world waterfall which is placed on the reverse side of the facility entry.  It has a artificial pool which attracts the tourists.  There are many resting spaces in the park which are sheltered by trees.  The centerpiece of the AL-Maktaba Park is a Clock Tower that is noticeable from an extreme distance.


Al-Musmak Castle

Situated in the Imam Turki Bin Abdullah, The Al-Musmak Castle is an ancient pride and joy of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.  The castle is known for its exceptional history in the country and it offers a scenic observation.  This castle is made from clay and mud-brick which played an important part in the Kingdom’s history.


The Kingdom Centre

This is the mall I frequented when I was in Riyadh.  I am always amazed of this landmark.  It is one of the tallest skyscrapers in Riyadh.  It is the 3rd largest in the Saudi Arabia and 25th tallest building in the world.  It has a wonderful shopping center, containing 160 exciting stores and shops of world’s prominent brands like Mont Blanc, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Saks Fifth Avenue, Marks & Spencer, and many other.  The Kingdom Centre has many business offices, world-class dining restaurants and the 5-star Four Seasons Hotel along with a stunning banquet hall.  It has 41 elevators, 22 escalators and a wide space for carpark.  You will not ignore The Kingdom Centre in Saudi Arabia.

Taking a trip alone can be very fulfilling. You can sense a feeling of freedom and independence. Your emotions are a mixture of excitement and adventure, of what lies ahead, alone, and it's only you and nobody else. No worries, nobody to take care of, and only you to enjoy whatever you will be doing and have fun wherever you go. Some form of escape perhaps, to unwind, relax, do some soul-searching and just do anything under the sun. This can be a rewarding experience. It does not matter if you are a man or a woman.


Here are some reasons why you need to travel alone at least once in your life:


Total freedom and independence. Traveling alone is a memorable experience. Imagine yourself doing anything alone to please your wishes, and desires? You can go to any place without waiting for anyone, you can eat your food whichever way you want, you can sleep for all you care and wake up with nobody to think of but yourself. No need of compromises, time constraints and debates. Savor it.


Dare Yourself. Traveling with only a backpack for yourself can be worthwhile, yes, because it will be only you who will be responsible for yourself, and your decisions. You need to trust your own choices, based on your instincts and belief. This will test you and who you are, and your limits.


Soul searching. This is the most treasured moments that you should cherish. Time spent alone is also time to do some soul searching. There would be times that you will be lonely, but you can fill that hollow space by just communing with yourself, the nature, and perhaps the Creator. This is the time that you can assess and reassess yourself, your priorities and what-have-you in your life. Have a deeper insight of other people, your friends, your job and your family.


Go home with a renewed spirit, and a transformation of a new perception of the world. Sometimes, you cannot see the value of life when you are in a crowd. You need to experience things alone to be able to appreciate yourself and the people around you.
