A few months before 2020, I bet everyone of us has already laid out plans for the coming year. Given quite a number of long weekends, w e already have a good idea for our vacation plans, how will we utilize our work leaves and where will we go during our holidays. Then enter 2020. January proved to be not a good start of the year. There were volcanoes erupting, celebrities dying and yes of course Covid-19 pandemic . Covid-19 pandemic which is caused by the Coronavirus resulted for most of us to be locked down in the comforts of our own homes. Employees were advised to work from home and stay away from the public to contain the spread of the virus. Unfortunately for some, their livelihood was taken away because working from home is not feasible and their company has no means to sustain the workforce. Experts say that the world will be going to a period of depression and many more jobs will be inevitably ...
Relationship & Travelling -
Why couples who travel together stay together?
I still remember the first out of
town trip my then boyfriend now my husband went to. It was 2005, a few weeks
after my college graduation. My boyfriend and I went on a trip to Puerto
Galera. I was a fresh graduate and still
unemployed and my bf has just started working. We had very limited funds and
just managed to rent a room in the house of a local resident who sublets their
rooms to tourists. We just had enough funds to have three decent meals per day for three days and enough for a back and forth transportation fare. Even though the
budget was tight and the trip was simple, our time spent together was more
important. The simplicity of the trip made it perfect!
After that trip, we decided to
have a trip together every year. We started to travel locally to places like Boracay, Bohol,
Pagudpod, Palawan to name a few and when I was assigned abroad for work, we
started taking trips outside the Philippines as well. We have visited majority
of the South East Asia and some countries further like China, Korea, Japan and
last year was in Australia. We recently got our US visa approved and planning
our trip there. I want to inspire couples to travel more. It will help
strengthen your relationship. And there is nothing that compares to the
excitement of exploring the world with the person you love most.
Here are some benefits of traveling together:
1.
Build Memories Together
Those memories you share as couple will last forever and
will always remind you that you have someone to share your happiness and
someone to cheer you up when you are down.
2.
“Us time”
With work, family and other commitments, we tend to be busy
with our lives. An “us time” is important. It will bring you closer together as
you can share your thoughts, express your feelings and really have an intimate
time together.
3.
Knowing each other more
Every time we travel, we learn
more about each other. When travelling, it is not always a smooth road. You
will experience some bad moments along the way. But by that bad experience, you
will learn the strengths and weaknesses of each other.
4.
You have each other
I really feel safe when travelling with my husband. There
will be some unexpected moments when travelling but because you have each
other, you’ll definitely overcome those unfortunate incidents.
5.
Refreshing the relationship
Relationship tends to become a bit
boring or monotonous after some time. Going out and exploring something or somewhere
new will refresh or re-energize your relationship.
6.
Excitement of the first time experience
It is an amazing feeling when you and
your partner share a first time experience. The feeling of experiencing and
seeing new is priceless.
