"Travel has a way of stretching the mind.
The stretch comes not from travel's immediate rewards,
the inevitable myriad new sights, smells and sounds,
but with experiencing firsthand how others do differently
what we believed to be the right and only way" Ralph
Crawshaw
"I have wandered all my life,
and I have also traveled;
the difference between the two being this,
that we wander for distraction,
but we travel for fulfillment" Hilaire Belloc
"Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by
the things that you didn't do than by the ones your did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore, Dream, Discover" Mark Twain

as a young man,
then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you,
for Paris is a movable feast." Ernest Hemingway
"I am not the same, having seen the moon
shine on the other side of the world" Anonymous
"If you reject the food, ignore the customs,
fear the religion,
and avoid the people, you might better stay home. You are
like a pebble thrown into water; you become wet on the surface
but you are never part of the water." James A. Michener
"Though we travel the world
over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.
" Ralph
Waldo Emerson
