We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find
ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about
the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what
little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the
globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence,
to become young fools again- to slow time down and get taken in, and
fall in love once more.
-- Pico Iyer
