on travelling

* eating a burrito on the bus to baghdad.

"Travel is often depicted as adventures to new and exotic lands, or that time you got alcohol poisoning and an STI in Brazil. But as Henry Miller once said ‘one’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.’ Such is the way with our travel. It’s not always about where you went and how you got there, but the experiences you have along the way that create both infinitesimal and cataclysmic changes within you."
