The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land, it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land.
—GK Chesterton
“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things – air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” – Cesare Pavese

— Lord Dunsany
Travel is an emotional experience. It is a privilege that transcends our humanity, expands our horizons and in the process, transforms us.
