I replied that one can find millions of the photos that people usually take on Google. I am bored of trying to take good photos of things I have seen better quality images of on the internet or in print. I am bored of going to the touristic spots and museums for the sole purpose of taking that information in and being able to say I have seen it. I\u2019d rather google that information. I like travelling because of the experience. When I go to a different place, I like to experience it fully. That is not necessarily the information that has been prepared to feed to tourists, but rather talking to locals, spotting the little things that are different, exploring the spots that aren\u2019t so crowded. I want to be able to learn something new that a documentary wouldn\u2019t show me. I want to be able to tell real stories to my friends and not just how amazing it was to see the Grand Canyon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To me, travelling is about the experience of other places with all their facets and peculiarities.
