Some very wise writers have defined travel as “the exploration of inner space — the losing of the self in order to find oneself”; “a pursuit of rootlessness”; “the recurrent human desire to drop our lives and walk out of them”; “to leave home where we impersonate ourselves and to become whomever we please.” Paul Fussell wrote in Abroad about the travels of D.H. Lawrence: “What he really saw in other things and places was the infinite.”
