What inspires you to travel?

Why do you travel? To challenge yourself? Experience new things? Escape daily life? Whatever your motivations the following quotes sum up perfectly what inspires us to see the world:

1. “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page” ~ St. Augustine

2. “Not all those who wander are lost” ~ J. R. R. Tolkien

3. “It is not down in any map; true places never are” ~ Herman Melville

4. “No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow” ~ Lin Yutang

5. “We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfilment” ~ Hilaire Belloc

6. “Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen” ~ Benjamin Disraeli

7. “For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move” ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

8. “The first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it” ~ Rudyard Kipling

9. “To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries” ~ Aldous Huxley

10. “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes” ~ Marcel Proust

11. “A traveller without observation is a bird without wings” ~ Moslih Eddin Saadi

12. “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things” ~ Henry Miller

13. “A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles” ~ Tim Cahill

14. “The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land” ~ G. K. Chesterton

15. “Don’t tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you travelled” ~ Mohammed
