Many well-known inspirational stories in history have involved travel of one kind or another.  This is probably the origin of the phrase “enjoy the journey as well as the destination.”  When you’re traveling, it’s necessary to sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.  Once you start your journey, you’re going to come across many fascinating things, whether you’re just taking a trip to a nearby town or traveling across the world to a different country.  The idea is to keep your mind open to new influences and absorb them as completely as possible.  No journey is ever going to be perfect but if you follow some simple tips, you might end up with many inspirational stories from travel.
