Just a traveller
"We travel not to escape life
but
for life not to escape us."
"Nothing behind me,
everything ahead of me,
as is ever so
on the road."
Jack Kerouac
Mary Ann Radmacher
"I am not the same
having seen the moon shine
on the other side
of the world."

Pat Conroy
"Once you have travelled,
the voyage never ends,
but is played out
over and over again
in the quietest chambers.
The mind can never break off from the journey."
"Travel is more than the seeing of sights;
it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent,
in the ideas of living."
Miriam Beard
"Still south I went and west
and south again.
And far from cities,
and the sights of men,
lived with the sunshine and the moon's delight."
"I am a wave of the sea
And the foam of the wave
And the wind of the foam
And the wings of the wind."
Anonymous
"I love the wind, the air, space.
And I set off I know not where,
my hear fervent and wild,
in the air that shines and
in the wind that blows."
