Date a boy who travel

Date a boy who travels. But really? Who wants a boy who think of little else but holidays and trips, all the time? When conversations always turn to cheap travel deals, new holiday spots, and yet another dream of taking a holiday? Why date a boy who lives frugally and saves hard, only to splurge it on air tickets to far-flung places of the places.
Well, humour the boy who travels, just for a second.
You might not be impressed by his practical clothes nor tattered backpack. Neither by his many weekends to out-of-town places and day trips. He might not have a flashy car bring you around, or a big watch to impress the people around you.
But behind that earnest smile and those twinkling eyes, lies a curious mind that will want to know you as you are, right now, and can take you places, right after.
Date a boy who travels. Don’t laugh at him when he exclaim in delight at common things at ordinary places. Take a closer look at that fern of a tree which has stood its ground for hundreds of years. Pray with him at the temple which has guarded the settlement over generations of villagers. Share his packet of fried beans found only at street markets at that part of the world, and no where else.
For he who travels has long developed a deep sense of appreciation for all things around him, big and small, new and old.
And that includes you. Be lighthearted and be your true self, when you are with the boy who travels. He will share your beauty, forgive your flaws and love you all the same, just the way he did with many others he has met, all over the world.
