THE SENSE OF A JOURNEY: different ways of traveling

Written by Barbara | Apr 14, 2020 2:23:14 PM
Who says you have to move to travel? There’s plenty of alternatives, especially in such a particular moment that we have to stay home.We turned our love of traveling into a job and today we want to share with you what "free to travel" truly means for us.
A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our door step once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over, because the film of memory continues running on inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill.”
Ryszard Kapuscinsk

THE JOURNEY BEGINS IN YOUR MIND

"The journey is in your mind". Jean Baudrillard

Let’s not forget that every journey begins from our mind, as the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard said. Difficulties can’t stop our desire to dream and discover the beauty of this world. We can take advantage of the time we have today to lead our mind and soul to all those places where we can be one day.


THE JOURNEY IS IN A BOOK

"A reader lives a thousand lives" George R.R. Martin

Reading is like traveling. Every book you choose to read is the beginning of a new journey. There are readings with the power to take us to wonderful places and discover new horizons. Emotions become so strong that seem to be real, like walking through the streets of a small village perched between green hills, meeting the art and culture of another country or tasting some specialties of the local cuisine. And then, who says this is just going to remain among the pages of a book?


THE JOURNEY IS IMAGINATION

"Don’t stop your imagination. Through imagination you can make the most spectacular journey for a human being." Walt Disney

The hustle and bustle of every day life often makes us forget the power of imagination. Children are certainly our greatest natural resource and can help us with that! Imagination is a good way to escape from the reality we are experiencing and face new challenges with more optimism. Traveling does not only mean packing a suitcase and leaving, it can also be an emotional adventure lulled by imagination. And don’t forget that positivity is contagious! #everythingwillbefine#

TRAVELING AROUND THE WORLD

"I am a citizen, not of Athens or Greece, but of the world" Socrates

We all feel closer and united in difficulties, that’s a fact! At this particular time, we’re rediscovering some values we had almost forgotten. Traveling is undoubtedly one of the most common desires for each of us and when we’ll be free to travel again, remember to keep a responsible attitude wherever you are, respecting the different traditions, habits and cultures. Let’s keep this desire to move freely without any prejudice alive! We’ll soon be able to visit places we’ve never seen before, taste new food, meet new people, live new experiences.
