Portrait

We are traveling for insight, adventure, inspiration, and growth.

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move. ~Robert Louis Stevenson

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. ~Lao Tzu

Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind. ~Seneca

Half the fun of the travel is the esthetic of lostness. ~Ray Bradbury

If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay home. ~James Michener

To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries. ~Aldous Huxley

"Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living." –- Miriam Beard

"One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things." –- Henry Miller

“She who would travel happily must travel light." -- Antoine de St. Exupery

"We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open." -- Jawaharal Nehru
