Everywhere you go you find people believing in these invisible projections of themselves or their fears, gods, they call them.

The joy of travel comes from a simple fact: when you go somewhere else things are different. The world is a collage. Each community your bus takes you to brings a new array of food, language and expression. You can even try a new flavor of lover or expand your consciousness (see our Drug Guides for the Traveler section.)

Today’s world has been mapped, its peoples discovered, delights and curiosities brought in the light for all of us to share. But it was not always so… Great explorers and travelers, writers and seekers, like Captain James Cook, Mark Twain, Richard Burton and others set out into new lands and cultures with keen insight and a thrill for adventure. Read some bios here and get inspired to venture into the world yourself. There are still stones to be unturned.

Here are some of our favourite inspirations to help you get on the road or just make sense of your life as you travel.
