Why Do People Love To Travel?

While sitting at my desk thinking about what to include in my next blog, I wanted to reflect on traveling and put aside the logistics of the magazine for a day. I researched the question "Why do people love to travel?". I know why I love to travel but I wanted to see others opinions. Why would these people want to read another magazine about traveling? What would make our magazine different from all the others?

From the research, I learned 10 reasons why people love to travel, these include:
1. Challenging yourself
2. Learning
3. Expanding your perspective
4. Getting in touch with yourself 
5. Appreciating your life
6. Building and strengthening your relationships 
7. Having an adventure
8. Escaping 
9. Relaxing and Rejuvenating 
10. Celebrating

All of these reasons are what we want to include in our magazine. We want our readers to read our magazine and be able to go out and explore these amazing places based on our experiences. Traveling for me is very important. My family and I are insanely close and its always important to go somewhere new and see the lifestyle of others. New Orleans is a place that not many people realize how amazing it is. Yes it may be a party city and many people think its dirty but not many people realize the culture and how nice the people are (it's nothing like Weston, Florida). I want to convey my love for this city in my magazine and let our readers be able to feel the way I do about this city. 

"Mardi Gras is about music, parades, picnics, floats and excitement."

Specifically the edition of the magazine is about Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras is an event that is put on for many years and all the people of New Orleans get together and celebrate by throwing beads and riding on floats. I want to be able to share the amazing experiences my family and I have with the readers of our magazine.
