Travel Quotes
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.
– Pat Conroy
Many of our favorite travel quotes speak to the many ways travel changes you. One of the most fundamental ways is by adding layers of memory and experience that play on repeat through your life ever after.
The quiet smile when distant friends come to mind. The memory of awe from landmarks and landscapes. The inner giggles and tears over mayhem and mishap, sweet meetings and fond farewells. These will stay with you the rest of your days.
Memories are the enduring gift of travel.
