Walking
Wandering
Holidaying
Journeying
Traversing
An attitude
An excursion
An expedition
Sallying forth
A state of mind
Going on a trip
Having new eyes
Intensified living
An act of humility
Motion, not residence
An education in itself
The excitement of life
The ultimate inspiration
Advancing or progressing
Going or marching on foot
Going from place to place
A new way of seeing things
A better thing than to arrive
Sometimes better than arriving
Going from one place to another
Exploring, dreaming, discovering
Almost always an inner experience
Roaming the roads of lands remote
Moving, to breathe, to fly, to float
A ceaseless fount of surface education
Anticipation, performance, and recollection
The best investment we can make in ourselves
Riding to a distant place in the same country
Moving in a given path or for a given distance
Movement between distant geographical locations
Curiosity about the extraordinary in the ordinary
Experiencing everyday things as if for the first time
Finding the place in this world that feels most like home
Discovering the way to find the essence of every place, every day
Discovering the overlapping point between history and everyday life
To learn, and to venerate, to improve the understanding and the heart
A private pleasure, since it consists entirely of things felt and things seen
Being in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted
The realm of the impossible adventures, the quick fix, the ship passing in the night
Going to a distant country, or visiting foreign states or kingdoms, either by sea or land
Throwing off the bowlines, sailing away from the safe harbor, catching the trade winds in our sails
More than the seeing of sights - it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living
Regulating imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they really are
