Travel as Escapism | Are you Traveling to Run Away from Problems?

Do you want to avoid getting a “real” job? Are you running away from a bad breakup? A fight with your parents? Life in general? Are you using travel as a way to escape your problems at home?

On this episode of the podcast, we talk about travel as a form of escapism. We share our personal experiences using travel to escape, our opinions on travel as a form of escapism, and much more. We explore the idea that travel is a better way to escape from the problems of life because it can help you to change your perspective and even your situation.

Enjoy!
