Travel. It makes us aware of the world around us, stretches our comfort zone, and grows us as human beings. If we become better individuals, doesn't it make sense that we would also become a better partner?
US Travel Association conducted a study to understand the effect of travel on romantic couples. Edge Research took a telephone survey in 2012 ensuring a sample of adults representing various genders, age, and region. The results reflected that traveling together does create higher satisfaction in relationships. Couples claim that
shared travel experiences gave them "alone time" to reconnect, allows better communication, gives them shared goals, and even develops a stronger agreement on how they spend their money.
