Why Does Traveling Make Us Happy?

Jan 23, 2025  Blog Icon  Category: Lifestyle

Traveling is one of the biggest joys one can experience — visiting new countries, exploring different cultures, tasting new food, standing in front of imposing and inspiring landscapes… it's all beyond amazing.  

A learning experience as fun as it is fulfilling, indeed. And it doesn't even stop there. Or rather, it doesn't start there. The thrill begins before even boarding the plane, when doing the research, scheduling everything, and booking the trip.  

But why is it that traveling makes us feel so wonderful? What about boarding a plane or getting on a bus en route to a brand-new place that sits right with us? The International Day of Happiness takes place every year on March 20, and this time, we want to honor it by reviewing why traveling is one of the biggest joys out there and sharing some ideas for a future trip with your favorite people. 

 Traveling is all about freedom 

Jumping on your favorite means of transportation and moving, even if for a brief time, to another city, country, or continent is all about breaking free from routine and getting to experience life almost for the first time again.   

Before getting there, your brain is already three steps ahead, picturing everything you'll get to do, all the adventures awaiting, and the beautiful places to visit. After arriving, it suddenly becomes real, filling you with excitement and energy.  

You feel like you can't wait any longer, and the best part? You don't even need to! Traveling, taking a small break from your everyday life, is profoundly nurturing to the human experience because it allows for exploration and growth. You learn. You change. You flourish away from the daily grind and feel whole again without worrying about the hassle.

How to make the most out of traveling 

You can make the most of your time away from home by finding suitable activities and engaging in them as often as possible. Are you a sightseeing enthusiast? Then, by all means, book an on-foot tour and take spectacular pictures. Is food something you like? Find the best culinary spots out there and make a reservation. It's all about doing something that makes you happy and satisfied.  

For instance, traveling to a destination like Punta de Mita will be right up your alley if you love the beach and want to indulge in the finer things in life. With miles and miles of soft sands, crystal-clear waters, and abundant nature, this colorful little town is beyond charming and has many hidden treasures.   

Undoubtedly, it is the ideal destination for an intimate escapade with your loved ones — secluded, calm, and dreamy, with spectacular accommodations all around, like Armony Luxury Resort & Spa, our select adults-only, all-inclusive resort where you will find high-end facilities and detail-oriented service 24/7

Five experiences must try in Punta de Mita: 

1. Cacao Ceremonies at Armony: Immerse yourself in a sacred tradition with our Cacao Ceremonies at Armony. Experience the deep connection between mind, body, and spirit as you give in to this ancient elixir known for its heart-opening properties. Let our experienced guides lead you through a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing.

2. A Watsu Therapy at Armony: Indulge in the ultimate relaxation with Watsu therapy at Armony. Drift into deep serenity as you're gently supported and moved through warm water by a skilled therapist. Let go of tension and stress as the soothing movements and water embrace you, promoting profound relaxation and renewal.

3. Try Armony’s Ice Bucket Challenge: Take the plunge and experience the invigorating thrill of Armony's Ice Bucket Challenge. Feel the rush as icy water cascades over you, awakening your senses and leaving you feeling refreshed and energized. Challenge yourself to embrace the moment and emerge revitalized from this exhilarating experience. 

4. Visit Small Towns: Explore the charm and authenticity of nearby small towns during your stay. Immerse yourself in the rich culture and history as you wander through quaint streets with colorful buildings and bustling marketplaces. Discover hidden gems, interact with friendly locals, and create lasting memories of your adventure off the beaten path.

5. Visit ParrotFish: Treat your taste buds to a culinary delight at ParrotFish restaurant. Indulge in a feast of fresh sushi expertly prepared by our skilled chefs. Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere and stunning views as you savor every bite. From succulent grilled fish to mouthwatering cuts of meat, ParrotFish promises a dining experience that will tantalize your senses.

At Armony, the thrill of traveling comes to life with a privileged beachfront location and spaces carefully designed to offer the best of both worlds: privacy and fun. Our water activities offer a nautical adventure like no other. You can also try our wellness experiences, including Watsu, Sound Healing, and Cacao Ceremonies, or Mélange, our international spa, is the perfect place to rest and recharge at the end of the day.   

So, now you know: dare to experience the wonders of traveling and indulge in the unhurried and all-embracing charm of Armony Luxury Resort & Spa.
