General Travel

Travel is not just moving over the earth from one place to another in some kind of conveyance. It’s not about where you’re going or how you’re getting there. Travel is a metaphor for life, a way of experiencing it more intensely. It is not so much an action as an enlightened state of consciousness which opens you to a fresh look at the world and yourself.

Ed Buryn, vagabond philosopher, sharing his views on travel in 1972.
