导读：读万卷书，行万里路。通过旅行，我们可以学到很多从书本中学不到的有用知识。可见，旅行的意义非同一般。
I circled the world by plane （twice， actually） and went to some crazy places. Here are 6 things I learned by doing this.
1. The world is beautiful.
Rubbish is the same in every culture， but beauty is different for each and every one. It took a while to turn my head around this. But in the end I understood that creativity and diversity are two basic traits of the human race.
2. Friendship is a state of mind.
You don’t have to share a lot of time or space with someone to become friends. It’s more about trust and transparency. I made a lot of friends at thousands of kilometers away from home. Years after we met， we are still in touch， although we are not seeing each other in person.
3. Plan for the worse but expect the best.
When you are traveling to 20，000 km away from home for the first time， you plan a lot. You do a lot of research and get a lot of things with you and you are kind of scared. And that is a good thing： it keeps you alert and make you aware. But once your plane took off， forget this. Just enjoy the ride.
4. It is all about point of view.
If you are going each and every day to the same route （doesn’t matter if it’s a happy or a boring route）， you tend to your loving for what you already have. But once you go on a long trip， for a few weeks， completely changing the scenery， once you get back home， everything looks better， shinier， nicer.
5. Food is good.
When you travel far away from home， you also travel far away from your eating habits. Your food will， most of time， totally changed. But that is very good news. Your body will be exposed to a wealth of tastes and nutrients. And that will finally lead you to the conclusion that， no matter where you are， food is always good.
6. Risk a little， live a lot.
I usually travel alone. That has at least one major advantage （and， I admit， a few drawbacks， but we are not focusing on those now）. It is about flexibility. I can change plans really fast. And I often do it. Many of the most memorable moments from my trips are generated by short moments of： “Oh， hell， let’s try this too.”
