It is sometimes said that ‘travel broadens the mind’. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

The world is always shifting, and so do

people

.

Therefore

, some

people

choose travelling as a

way

to open their minds

,

Remove the comma

and see how the world has changed day by day. From my point of view, I partly agree with

this

thought

due to

the advantages of it and travel is not only a

way

to help

people

broaden their knowledge. Travelling can be seen as an effective

way

to be open-minded

due to

some reasons. First of all, travelling will help

people

to know more about a country, by experiencing their culture and custom.

For example

, when foreign visitors come to Vietnam, they have a chance to understand more about the behaviour, and lifestyle of most Vietnamese through daily activities.

Secondly

, going to another place is one of the best ways to meet new friends and witness different points of view on an issue. Different

people

from different countries will have their own thought, and views about a situation.

As a result

,

people

can easily put themself in others' shoes, and develop empathy. On top of that, there are some effective ways to broaden the mind, not only by travelling. Changing opinions and seeing others' reactions can be learned by experiencing real-life situations.

For example

, a discussion definitely shows us the thinking of our friends on the same issue.

Due to

that,

people

realize how their minds change

while

thinking about that situation, in

this

way

or that

way

and why they have those views. Opening the mind can

also

get from reading.

For example

,

people

can witness the author's view or figure out the solution that they found when reading a self-help book. In conclusion, it can be claimed that not only travelling but

also

other effective ways can help

people

be open-minded.

Therefore

, I do agree with

this

statement partly

due to

the above reasons.
