Travel -- A Never Ending Footsteps
Travel is about experiencing the new place you are visiting and all it has to offer through it's natural environment and cultural appreciation. It leaves you speechless, then turns you into storyteller.
Travel is all about the memories. Some travels just because they want to see the Instagramable places that they seen in IG world. The 'wow' factor and I want to be there and have the same picture of that. But do they marked the memories on the place it self? Well maybe yes, on their pictures while roaming around striking poses on different angles, selfies and groupies. In time, they can see the memories reminder in social media and tell people that been there done that.
But how long would you still remember the place with those pictures? You may think all those pics can help you remember the good times?
If you want to remember your vacation more, take fewer photos and just thoughtful photos. Put the cellphone and camera down! Take lots of happiness during vacation, stop thinking of new poses, snapping photos and updating IG. Simply wander around the place and appreciate the surroundings. Some people might not see it again. And its much grateful looking back and telling people you have experienced than presenting the pictures on your hand. It only snap some sort of memento but not the natural memories of an event.

Remember the movie Inside Out, As Riley grows up, her experiences become memories, stored in colored orbs, which are sent into long-term memory each night. Joy and the group can't maintain your memory on devices than the long-term memory they stored.
