International travel makes people prejudiced rather than broad minded. What are its causes and what measures can be taken to solve this problem?

Nowadays, international movement has flourished to an extent, which had made the world a global village. With

this

phenomenon, people have become prejudiced

instead

of broadening their horizon.

This

essay will discuss some of the reasons associated with the mindset of people while travelling across countries and would

also

suggest some solutions to circumvent the same.

To begin

with, travel has become easier than never before. As compared to the past, people move widely either for business purpose or for leisure. Undoubtedly, tourism sector contributes to the major part of revenue for the vast majority of countries.

However

, people fly without prior knowledge regarding the culture of the host

country

. Definitely,

this

would lead to narrowing people’s thoughts, as they feel annoyed by the act of the people of the host

country

.

For instance

, in my state most of the religious places have the mandatory custom to leave the foot wares outside, while there are possibilities that people from other countries may feel strange about the practice.

Furthermore

, affluent people would transit abroad, without knowing about the host

country

.

This

would often lead to biases and misconceptions.

Hence

, prior knowledge regarding the

country

that we visit adds more value to our purpose of visit. Does

this

mean that there are no solutions to these problems? Definitely not. Alternatively, people must learn mandatory at the time of visa application about the experiences that would improve the awareness about different countries.

In addition

, seminars and various campaigns can be conducted by the tour guides and operators which would impart knowledge to the visitors.

Moreover

, if people are exposed to the tradition and civilization of the

country

,

this

would enhance to broaden their attitude towards the society and

also

would help in building up rapport with the people. To conclude,

although

flying abroad has made the people narrow minded,

this

can be overcome by taking appropriate steps by themselves learning the culture and people involved in

tour industry
