Vagabonding is about not merely reallotting a portion of your life for travel but rediscovering the entire concept of time.

I think your travels get better when you stop showcasing your journey to others and begin to live it, quietly and joyfully.

Money, of course, is still needed to survive, but time is what you need to live. So, save what little money you possess to meet basic survival requirements, but spend your time lavishly in order to create the life values that make the fire worth the candle. Dig?

Of all the adventures and challenges that wait on the vagabonding road, the most difficult can be the act of coming home.

Seeing' as you travel is somewhat of a spiritual exercise: a process not of seeking interesting surroundings, but of being continually interested in whatever surrounds you.

there is still an overwhelming social compulsion-an insanity of consensus, if you will-to get rich from life rather than live richly, to “do well” in the world instead of living well.
