TRAVEL UNITES At Virtuoso, we believe traveling the world not only changes lives, but brings people together across religions, cultures, and country lines. Here, some reasons why we should all travel more. Become a Global Citizen Travel opens minds and shows us there’s more than one way to live. Break down those boundaries and give yourself the gift of better understanding the world around you. Get Connected Step away from your daily life to spend more time with family, friends, loved ones, and (just as importantly) yourself. It's always a good idea to make room for reflecting on who you are and how you want to grow. Make a Difference The tourism industry is one of the world’s largest sectors, supporting 292 million jobs worldwide and generating 10.2 percent of global GDP. Sustainable tourism isn’t just about environmentally friendly practices; it’s also about support for the protection of cultural and natural heritages, as well as the social and economic benefits to local people. Venture Forth Create memories, make discoveries, and meet new people. IMAGES IMGORTHAND/GETTY 2 EUROPEAN GEMS VIRTUOSO 2018 LUXE REPORT Looking for some destination inspiration?
