Travel philosophy

“Wherever you go, there you are.” The beauty of this seemingly simple phrase lies in the fact that it can be interpreted in a variety of ways.  For me, above all, it points to the connectedness of everyone and everything in the universe.  I am the same as you, and we are the same as that, and therefore, wherever I go, I will see some aspect of myself reflected back.  It is in this way that travel becomes a spiritual journey in which, paradoxically, you go further out only to delve deeper into yourself.
