Travelling for personal growth

[RawJudah]

Hello everyone.

i have been considering travelling for a couple of years now, and now I have the money to do it I think I will be fully ready to go this October. 

So my question is this - will it help me to grow as a person and help me to gain more life experience? Or will it not benefit much at all? Has it helped anyone else to grow on this forum? I am from a small town in the U.K. and I feel I’m starting to get stuck in my ways and stagnant, and I am desperate for more experiences with different places and cultures, more so now I have money to do these types of things. I am worried that I will get too stuck and not travel and meet new faces and places. (Because it’s looking that way)

Should I just shut up and go for it? 

I am 24 years old. Got a pretty decent job but am willing to quit it for travelling. Im not tied down to anything either, hardly paying out for anything.

Any advice or help would be much appreciated.

also, I know it’s a pretty blunt topic but ask me anything and I’ll reply when I can.

Grand tour is very good for personal development, I've done it when I was in your age.
