sorry, but taking a cruise to bahamas,or a two weeks trip to europe doesn't make one a "well traveled" being. Living in a different country for a while, it will open you a whole world of differnt perspective, and experience things that you just don't when visiting a place for a few days.

yes, just the fact of knowing a foreign language, (well), tells a lot about a person.

Agreed. It really depends on the kind of travel. Watching other people commute is not mind expanding. That said moving somewhere totally different and working there for a year is.
