“Wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe"
- Anatole France
"For my part I do not travel to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move."- Robert Louis Stevenson
“The act of vagabonding is not an isolated trend so much as it is a
spectral connection between people long separated by place and time, but
somehow speaking the same language.”
“To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to
experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position
in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.”
-Bill Bryson
“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated,
often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world.
The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will
collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will
be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless
cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable
of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be
black-and-white.”
-Mark Jenkins
