Travelling expands the mind rarely.

Travel, which was once either a necessity or an adventure, has become very largely a commodity, and from all sides we are persuaded into thinking that it is a social requirement, too.

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.

To travel is to take a journey into yourself.

Travel for me is all about transformation, and I'm fascinated by those people who really do come back from a trip unrecognizable to themselves and perhaps open to the same possibilities they'd have written off not a month before.

Travel has always been one of the best ways to make new memories and reconnect with your loved ones.

I've backpacked to countries like Italy and Turkey and observed beautiful scenery, but then I realized that beauty was always very close to me. It is here in Belitung Island, where the rivers, beaches and the terrain captivate my attention most.

In both business and personal life, I've always found that travel inspires me more than anything else I do. Evidence of the languages, cultures, scenery, food, and design sensibilities that I discover all over the world can be found in every piece of my jewelry.

I am a passionate traveler, and from the time I was a child, travel formed me as much as my formal education. In order to appreciate cultures of another nation, one needs to go there, know the people and mingle with the culture of that country. One way to do that, if one is lucky enough, is to buy things from those cultures.

Family trips to Yellowstone and to what are now national parks in Southern Utah, driving the primitive roads and cars of that day, were real adventures.

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.

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

Travel is a passion. I intend seeing the world.

Adventure travel existed before I started, I just didn't know it.

I love sharing my travels and I've had some fascinating travelling companions over the years. I really believe travel is made the richer being with people.

Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.

Travel is always connected to music, as with travel, we explore the world, and by listening music, we explore ourselves.

The travel writer seeks the world we have lost - the lost valleys of the imagination.

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs.

The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes 'sight-seeing.'

For me, adventures are a vehicle for travelling deep into the fabric of society, coming to know the environmental conditions that shape people's lives and viewing the present in the context of history.

I like to travel and connect.

Travel aesthetics should be just as comfortable and practical as they are fashionable.

I want to explore the world properly, to be able to write about and take pictures of all kinds of different cultures. Just be an explorer or adventurer. I also love extreme sports.

Travel is the frivolous part of serious lives, and the serious part of frivolous ones.

My father was a commercial deep-sea diver in exotic locations and my mom was British and we would travel there every year. So I always had that wanderlust in me.

I started traveling out of curiosity, but I have come to believe in travel's political importance, that encouraging a nation's citizenry to travel may be as important as encouraging school attendance, environmental conservation, or national thrift. You cannot understand the otherness of places you have not encountered.

Slow travel now rivals the fly-to-Barcelona-for-lunch culture. Advocates savour the journey, travelling by train or boat or bicycle, or even on foot, rather than crammed into an airplane. They take time to plug into the local culture instead of racing through a list of tourist traps.

Life is either a great adventure or nothing.

Adventure is worthwhile.

My writing is a combination of three elements. The first is travel: not travel like a tourist, but travel as exploration. The second is reading literature on the subject. The third is reflection.

I have this fantasy of my older days, painting or sculpting or making things. I have this fantasy of a bike trip to Chile. I have this fantasy of flying into Morocco. But right now, it's about getting the work done and getting home to family. I have an adventure every morning, getting up.

A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.

Adventure is worthwhile.

Traveling is a major source of inspiration. There is so much to learn from history and different cultures.

Why, I'd like nothing better than to achieve some bold adventure, worthy of our trip.

You never know when some small thing will lead to a big idea. Travel is very inspirational - but it's in the ordinary that I find my themes of love and work and family.

Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.

Through travel, you discover a new aspect to your personality. You discover things which you wouldn't seated in the confines of your home.

Traveling the world can be an amazing - and even better - a happy experience. You just have to do it the right way.

I am sort of an adventurer. I like to explore new places. I don't get to travel as often as I would like but I love it.

Travel can also be the spirit of adventure somewhat tamed, for those who desire to do something they are a bit afraid of.

Just to travel is rather boring, but to travel with a purpose is educational and exciting.

Tourists don't know where they've been, travelers don't know where they're going.

Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it.

You need to be an adrenalin junkie when you travel with kids.

I have found adventure in flying, in world travel, in business, and even close at hand... Adventure is a state of mind - and spirit.

I've taken a lot of risks through the years, but I always followed my instincts and always explored new opportunities. The biggest reward has been having an idea and being able to make it a reality. My passions always lead the way - travel and adventure, fitness, art, and home.

I like to travel. I love touring, I love playing.

I am living out my adolescent dream of travel and adventure.

My husband and I love to travel. For me, a dream vacation in Brazil begins first and foremost with a rad hotel. Then, number two is eating - eating delicious food nonstop, almost around the clock. And then a mix of relaxation and beaches, and doing adventures.
