Learn to travel; travel to learn

A lot of people wish to travel the world but face constraints in terms of funding the endeavour, putting their careers on hold or simply being unsure of whether their socio-economic status would act as a hindrance in getting visas for their journey. Today I came across a very good article on BBC Travel website penned by a lady who has managed to defy all of the above odds and chase her dreams of being a globe trotter.

While not everyone can emulate the template set by her, there surely is enough of that 'go-and-get-it-done' kind of message in this article that should help you chart your own way forward.
