Q: Can I fast while traveling? I heart it was okay.

A: Technically yes, you can fast while traveling. It is however disliked. It is actually preferred to break your fast while traveling even if the travel is not difficult due to it being a concession afforded to the faithful from Allah. Allah loves when you accept His concesions.
