Where one city will rise a certain individual to glory, it will destroy another who is not suited to its personality. Only through travel can we know where we belong or not, where we are loved and where we are rejected. Roman Payne

Nothing will ever again be black and white. Mark Jenkins

And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. Pico Iyer

I want to try everything once. Anthony Bourdain
