Travelling helps you deal with a heartbreak in several ways. First, there is the advantage of distance. If you and your ex-partner stay close to one another, moving on would be an uphill task. There is nothing as painful as watching them glow hand in hand with a new partner. Simply go for a vacation and by the time you come back their presence won’t bother you anymore. Secondly travelling makes you learn new things, meet new people and have a different perspective about life.
