After visiting 12 countries in the past five years, I've noticed that the more I travel, the more I feel like I'm just collecting stamps on a passport rather than actually understanding local cultures. My trip to Japan was a whirlwind of selfie spots and group tours, and I barely spoke to a local outside of restaurants. I'm starting to think that frequent travel might actually be making me more ignorant, not more open-minded. What's your take—does travel truly broaden the mind, or is it just a consumerist illusion?
