244. Travel - The Joys and Complexities
Manage episode 424211530 series 3147211
For many people, travel provides some of the most profound experiences of their lives. Whether it’s a short excursion or a year living abroad, disengaging from your typical routine and transplanting yourself into the unknown is bound to lead to personal growth and self-discovery. But for all the good that can come from it, travelling can also be confusing. Is travelling always supposed to be joyful? Is there a trap that some fall into of travelling simply because that’s the ‘cool’ thing to do and permits you conceive of yourself as ‘worldly’? And Is there a risk that one can become obsessed with a certain impermanence that travel breeds, an escapism of sorts? Jesse O'Reilly-Conlin, author of 'Go: A Memoir of Movement', joins the podcast.
