Modernism: Let Your World Travel Be Your Freedom

water and relax on the beach swimming with the dolphins and the turtles in the deep blue sea,

and listening to the birds singing. This is the type of opportunity people started to have during

modernism. During modernism, the years of 1914 to 1945, people are able to travel and see new

places in the world because of their newfound freedom that is similar to the freedom we have

today.

house work, watch their babies, and cook food for their family. Men thought that women cannot

capacity/ability/intelligence to make good/wise decisions so that they were not in the same level

as a men. But now, women have earn the right to vote and live life the way they want.

young woman travelling with her boyfriend in Spain by train. The pictures on their bags shows

like with.

In 1966, the Supreme Court overruled chief justice whites conclusion that the federal

government could protect the right only against state infringement. People start traveling because

they want to learn about different cultures from around the world and to see how different

peoples lifestyle is. The second reason why people started to traveling is to party or just to have

fun and people travel with the sole purpose of enjoyment, wild partying or just because the

funniest things happen when youre traveling.
