, getting to know our planet and nature from a different perspective.

However

, other societies strongly believe that visits to

such

zones can be dangerous and can have lethal outcomes if travellers are not well prepared and trained properly. It is certain, that getting out of the comfort zone and going to places where conditions are not human-friendly for living, could teach one to appreciate their current living conditions and not take human development for granted.
