opportunity to learn about another country's culture	going to museums, cultural events, festivals gives unique insight

Thanks to package deals and budget airlines, more people have the opportunity to travel abroad these days. But just how true is it that travel broadens the mind?

In my opinion, travelling to other countries gives us a broader understanding of the world. Firstly, it presents an excellent opportunity to learn about another country's culture. For example, going to museums, cultural events and festivals when on holiday can give a unique insight into the local people and their history. Secondly, we can sample another cuisine. Trying different food means discovering new and enjoyable tastes and even learning new ways of cooking.

On the other hand, some people argue that travelling abroad does not make for greater cultural understanding. They point out that many tourists avoid meeting local people. Instead, they prefer to mix with other tourists in their hotel. They even eat the same food they would have at home.

However, it is really up to the individual to make the most of their experience abroad. It is important to choose the right kind of holiday. For instance, volunteering on an eco-holiday will teach you far more about local culture than staying at a tourist resort.

In conclusion, it seems to me that travel can offer a wealth of new experiences. It need not be just a home-from-home holiday with fellow-tourists. Instead, we can learn a lot about foreign culture, history and cuisine. In the words of America actress Solange Knowles, "You get educated by travelling."
