A short look at the question of why people travel, particularly in a time when we have more options for making connections remotely than ever. Written by a travel writer who has clearly thought quite a bit about what travel brings to his life, this book does not provide a definitive answer to the question but does provide some good insights, delivered in an engaging style.

Favorite Thing: 
The insight about how travel lets you see new aspects of yourself by taking you away from the things that distract you.
