Why We Travel

I'm flipping through the New York Times' online slideshow called "Why We Travel," and it's reminding me just how excited I am to be planning my trip to visit Allison. Here's a quote they pulled from Robert Byron's "First Russia, Then Tibet":

“The supreme moments of travel are born of beauty and strangeness in equal parts: the first panders to the senses, the second to the mind; and it is the rarity of this coincidence which makes the rarity of these moments."
