AVI GOLD has TRAVELED 91 COUNTRIES in 11 YEARS

Who does not love to travel the world? Traveler retains the oceans of exposure, experience, knowledge, colors, and lights of the places he visits within his entity. Where ever a person moves on the Earth he returns with a suitcase filled with pebbles, memories, breeze, and sounds of the views and locations.

Just like that, a devoted and passionate traveler, Avi Goldstein, 29 years old adult is far ..about exploring and excavating places. He loves mingling with new cultures and getting to know about them. His hunger for exploring new places, and knowing new cultures keeps him on wheels and in the air. His unending rides ad adventures have given a world to his social media followers like his Instagram family.

In an interview with Edgy magazine, Avi shared his journey how traveling became his passion and interest. He told that when he began traveling the world, it all started as a hobby but later it became an addiction, and now it is his lifestyle. Since then he has traveled an average of 25 days each month, 320 trips to 91 countries and unrecognized territories and the journey continues. He travels to relish and educate himself, to meet people from every origin, around the globe. Meeting all kinds of people is very stimulating and amusing, especially when you don’t speak their language. Sharing the aims he mentioned that his goal is to visit all countries in the world while meeting many people and spreading the word of peace.

Elaborating his views he said, he continued to like it more with each trip, and to be honest, this is a life he felt most happy living. He said “In the beginning, it was really hard to blend in and mingle with people, but now it is what I do and I am good at it. It is what I adore the most while traveling. I win other people’s hearts by being very open-minded, humble, accepting, forgiving, and trying to express goodness. I prefer to live in a blended culture. It causes people to be more loving and compliant. Besides, it’s always good to learn new things.”

Avi has staunch affection for traveling. He justifies his love for the journey by adding that the best stories are written on the pages of his passport. Yes, he does have many unbelievable stories to tell, but he is too busy collecting more. One day he will share them with his children and the next generation.

EVEN IF WE DON’T SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE, we can always communicate with the “LANGUAGE OF THE HEART’’

He says that in the middle eastern countries and the Arabs, they are not shy to be kind or loving. While in western countries, it might be a sign of weakness. Praising Israeli culture Avi said, “Our culture is beautiful, the people and nation are very caring for each other and are always united. I love it. I also want to shatter all stereotypes. I am from the Jewish ultra-orthodox community, having Seven siblings but I want to carry my way of living and inspire others. I am the kind of human being, who wants to share and spread love. A kind of a peacekeeper.”

Avi is of the view that the similarities are, we all are humans. Even if we don’t speak the same language, we can always communicate with the “language of the heart”. No matter where you come from or what language you speak, you will always know the meaning of a smile or a hug. We all have good intentions, just sometimes it might be hard to see it in others.

His vision of peace is that one day our passports will be in our hearts and not paper booklets with names of countries. He hopes that one day we will be judged by our deeds and intentions and not where we come from. Avi thinks that the lack of cultural respect for each other in various societies is because we are scared of the unknown. AVI DOES HAVE MANY UNBELIEVABLE STORIES TO TELL, BUT HE IS TOO BUSY COLLECTING MORE. One day

he will share them with his children and the next generation.

Avi encourages people by highlighting his views, he said “Don’t believe what they say, go see it for yourself. I have sown a seed of interest and love for traveling in the hearts of people. He has set an example that one has to live to his fullest before it’s too late.”
