This is really awesome quotes ..i love travelling too but i have not enough money but after few years .. i will travel the world and definitely going to visit prague.

this is true, let's not let our roots plant us in one spot... allow our feet to take us all over this wonderful earth that mother nature and God have created for us. Let us continue to gallivant the globe and see new sights, onward and upward

Respect

That's the way! Let's explore the world... there are so many amazing places to visit. Tomas

Yes, indeed! I hope one day, when I graduate from my masters program to obtain to job where 'traveling' is a key component.

In may, when I graduate with my Bachelor's my father is taking me to Greece as a graduation gift.. excited to explore the island of Greece and see the beautiful blue waters and eat some wonderful, fresh seafood

Regards,

Connor

Great to hear that you are one of those people that feel uneasy at one place and have a need to discover new places. Tomas

Thank you..

nice to see read your exellent quotes every weekend and also this is really good
i think we should not change our living place because we love this place and everyone who lives near with us from a long time
but must change for journey and travels to enjoy our life and travelling is the world best way to enjoy and give relax our souls @czechglobalhosts

Happy to see you do enjoy my weekend quotes and even happier that you do enjoy the travels!

Awesome Quote Sir:

If we were meant to stay in one place, we'd have roots instead of feet.

We have two eyes to see, two ears to hear and two hands to feel. And we are given two feet to move – not just from home to the supermarket, but to walk, to explore and to feel alive. Likewise, we all have a brain with a huge capacity for learning – one of the biggest in all of the animal kingdom – that we should not just use a fraction of. One of the ways we can utilize this brainpower is while travelling; when education is constant. Without much effort, we are constantly educated about other people’s cultures and ways of life, maximising the brain’s learning capacity. If we desire travel, wasting an opportunity to explore and learn about the world around us would be an awful shame.

Hello! I have really enjoyed reading through your comment. Some very valuable point you have made there... if only people lived by half of it they would be in a great shape:)... enjoy the rest of your Sunday. .. tomas

Thanks for your reply sir. Your greets are precious to me. And it's actually monday here now🙂. I wish you also have a good day filled with happiness and love ahead sir🙂

Well, it really depends upon the mood that i have to stay at home or i have to travel. This thing also depends upon the situation of my life as i am a teacher by profession so i love to travel in holidays as compare to working days. Like in winter vacations i visited Historic places of my city and in summer vacations we went to river side for three days.

I do agree with the above stated golden words of Rachel Wolchin. Indeed man was created to travel; to explore the nature in his/he own way. Travelling is always a thing that gives me positive energy to forget about the miseries of life and boosts my level of knowledge as well

Thanks lot for asking this very important aspect of human life Great Tomas :)

HI! Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving your valuable insight on my post. I am glad to hear that yourself as well as many other fellow Steemians do have itchy feed and do have to keep on moving and finding new places of our beautiful planet. Tomas

Loved the quote and your deep desires to travel around every nook and corner of world. Or may be beyond world to the moons or other planets.

Traveling is perhaps coded in our genes. For millions of years our ancestors had traveled to find more greener pastures and tried to learn good things about life and way of living.

You are really an inspirational traveling enthusiast who is always ready to pack bag and go to next destination. You always amaze us and educate us with your amazing content and encouragement. I am proud of being a humble follower of your blogs.

Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving your positive comments. Also thank you so much for your compliment. I do appreciate that highly! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Tomas

Haha, that's a good quote ;)
I try to go to countries I haven't seen so far at least 2-3 times a year. I think I am abroad 5-7 weeks a year. But like most people I always have too much work and too few free time and money ;)
When I am old I don't want to regret that I have seen not enough of the world...

I think you are doing amazing with your travels and your fabulous images are a proof of it! Keep going at it. You ROCK!

I think we all should take more time to travel and going to new places. We can learn a lot of different places, cultures and people, we grow while finding new attitudes and dreams. And sometimes it happens that people find a new place where they are absolutely happy - and stay :) Just follow your heart and go where your heart is showing you. I think there is one thing missing in your post: How do you think about that quote? :)

Haha.... I like your curiosity:).... Me? I love it, I try to travel as much as I can and always try to explore the new places.... Traveling opens up your mind and gives you so many opportunities in many aspects of life.... I would be able to achieve even half of what I have done if it was not for my frequent travels! Have a great night and enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Tomas

Great! I think a few words about your thoughts are a good way to show your personality, I was interested in your opinion when I red your post :) thanks, have a nice evenig too! Annika

We as human being's are getting more disconnected from nature due to rise of technology and the urbanization associated with it.
This disconnect is not letting us value it as we should.
Hence, This Results in Deforestation, Urbanization and the miseries associated it.
I think these Beautiful places are there for us to experience and by traveling and doing so , We tend to Value Nature more

Yep, your are absolutely right about that. However, it also give us many resources to support our travels.... Access to information being just one of them. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. Have a good one. Tomas

I love the quote and I'm really trying to abide to it. Just travelled to the mountains of Nepal last weekend. Can't wait to get back to another wonderful journey to new places again. Wish time and money is always on my side.

That's great! Travel does not necessary have to be to the places across the globe but also our own countries. Unfortunately, many people do not see it this way. I know way to many that don't know their own country. That is quite a shame. Tomas

wasting our feet not to explore and learn about the world around us would be an awful shame.

Very true, sometimes we just tend to remain in one spot for so long without making effort to make radical changes in our lives.
When we fail to move by going out for a trip then we will not have any experience.
When we fail to create a post then our blog would be stagnant
We can decide to get root or foot in different areas depending on the type of approach we give to those areas

You hit me there real hard. The meaning is almost telling the story of half of my life and now I'm trying to change it the best and smoothest I could. Though not many may understand the road I have to travel on away from those "roots", I'll still get the slightest chance I could.

Thank you mr. Your post can Motivate us as the biginner

when the situation in our place no longer gives ease, our legs will be itching to move immediately. but when I joined in steemit community, it's hard to move .. everywhere steemit .. hahaha LoL

If there is no problem, I want to show you a few photo and information about my city

This is my hometown, Istanbul and ıt ıs Maiden Tower.
Istanbul's most impressive places, which are at first glance, are the Historical Peninsula and the Bosphorus.

Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, Yerebatan Cistern, and the impressive Istanbul Bosphorus tour starting from the Eminönü Galata Bridge to the Anatolian Kavağı are among the top of the excursions that Istanbul has to do.

In Istanbul Bosphorus, which separates Europe and Asia, you can not complete your trip to Istanbul without a traditional and unforgettable sea cruise on a ferry or boat. Entertainment in Istanbul and night life are completely different. Especially Taksim, İstiklal Caddesi and Tunnel line have the most important places of Istanbul night. In Istanbul, we can say that the arts and cultural activities are unlimited.

Amazing quote.it has a deep meaning....
In my opinion to travel is to live

it all depends on our own in fact, after I read the quote above, in my opinion better to lift your legs, than silence, and ride or ride a horse, I think more fun.lest we focus on one thing only. we must be fast, because in this steemit need a very big sacrifice, and happy is relative and good luck

i like to change places and home setting too changing refresh my mind and attracts me i like to travel and new places attracts me

Really nice...i think we should not change our living place because we love this place and everyone who lives near with us from a long time
but must change for journey and travels to enjoy our life and travelling is the world best way to enjoy and give relax our souls .........

I feel both ways - on one I'm a traveler, always making my path but on the other I'm grounded to the earth, having the energy flow through me.
But I really like this quote. Thanks for sharing!

This is one of the greatest post i have see on steemit followed already

That wonderful quote just made my rest of weekend more enjoyable. I really appreciate your deep passion for traveling. I also like traveling to get knowledge and entertainment.

Where I can not go your blogs are helpful for getting insight into the beautiful and healthy world which is beyond my reach but I am glad by your rich and fascinating blogs I often virtually visit those beautiful places.

Stay happy and healthy! Enjoy the weekend the legend; Tomas.

It's very deep indeed.
Actually, I've to migrate to another country for job purposes in a day or two and I was little nervous about moving to a place different people, different places, a new environment for me. I was little worried about what will happen or how I'll manage to stay there etc etc. and suddenly this quote proved to be a motivating one. Yes, if we are destined to be sticked to our homely place, why would God blessed us with feet.
Thank you so much for sharing. :)

i loved the quote and I'm really trying to abide to it. Travelling is my passion ..i usually travel to the mountains in my country nepal

The quote made my day... and the post is awesome. Had a great time reading it! I also love travelling, but finances are sometimes an issue. But, I am working to make it possible to work from anywhere in the world while I explore different places. Fingers crossed, hope it comes true soon!

Words to live by. Great post!

That is very true. standing at one place will never taje you to anywhere. It is for you to move from your comfortable zone to a place where you will hustle. And doing that will make you achieve your dreams

Amazing traveling with elephants nice capturing
