invitation au voyage : some ways how to travel (...and live!)

first, you don't need any reason to travel. there is no goal about it. there is no excuse too, only facts !
just taking time, respecting and being open to people, cultures (languages, arts, history, ...), nature.
and always continue to learn more about it. being curious. discover new things, local curiosities and people.
smile to life and good things will happen, inch'allah ! (also named karma)
let you go, drive and never planify.
destination is not important, only the way you open your eyes, your heart.

even dreaming is already a trip, travel also means moving. walking, biking, riding a train, a boat, hitchhiking is very nice, basic and spontaneous.
reaching slowly a place is a way to understand a lot of things and to meet great people.
stopping is another point. and find the right time to continue !

if you have money, give it directly to people, they need it. it means for local products, accomodation, ...
big local and international companies don't need it, they have enough... Even states, and you will support it enough anyway (v.a.t.(taxes on products), public transportations, visas, ... .
a budget can be based on median salary of the place you're visiting.
and never forget charity (and tips!) for good people you can help a little. personally it's about 15-20% of my spendings (my state, one of the richest in the world, “give" 1...but it's more money you can say). just be generous, share the opportunity you have to travel.

but maybe the most important is to realise you are almost nothing, or yes, but just a little piece of this big and beautiful puzzle.

and also realise you can live like this back home, and travel forever !
