Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Extensive traveling induces a feeling of encapsulation, and travel, so broadening at first, contracts the mind.
To travel is to take a journey into yourself.
Travel can also be the spirit of adventure somewhat tamed, for those who desire to do something they are a bit afraid of.
Travel for me is all about transformation, and I'm fascinated by those people who really do come back from a trip unrecognizable to themselves and perhaps open to the same possibilities they'd have written off not a month before.
Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it.
Traveling gives you some perspective of what the rest of the world is like. I think that having the courage to step out of the norm is the most important thing.
The two impulses in travel are to get away from home, and the other is to pursue something - a landscape, people, an exotic place. Certainly finding a place that you like or discovering something unusual is a very sustaining thing in travel.
Through travel, you discover a new aspect to your personality. You discover things which you wouldn't seated in the confines of your home.
The travel impulse is mental and physical curiosity. It's a passion. And I can't understand people who don't want to travel.
Travel is the frivolous part of serious lives, and the serious part of frivolous ones.
