In my view, one should visit at least one foreign country in his or her lifetime.
It gives you an understanding about the culture, traditions and the manner of living of people of those countries.
This knowledge helps you in seeing everything with a different, as well as a bigger perspective.
Such a trip enables you to take a break from your normal day to day routine and at the same time you can enhance your knowledge about the world. I got my chance of making a visit to a foreign country last month, when during my vacations my family took me to Singapore. We boarded the flight from Delhi and reached Singapore after 7 hours. I have always believed that the experiences that one gains with such trips helps in discovering some new ways of life and at the same time makes them wiser.
