"Travel broadens the mind"
When that phrase was coined you had to make a real effort to travel. You had to read travel guides, buy tickets (from travel agents, remember them?), learn phrases in a foreign language and be courageous at your destination to get around and see and do things.
Now you research on #Instagram, book flights online, travel in Uber, eat McDonald's, drink in Starbucks and stay in Airbnb at your destination. You get your selfies & go home none the wiser.
