I see it as a state of mind. Because a “well traveled” person typically have a good understanding or appreciation for culture not their own. They can see both sides and form opinion based on the world as a whole and not just the country they live in.

I think it’s why people say to go travel to broaden your horizons. It helps make you a better person.
