Travel Quotes

'The trick is not to rid your stomach of butterflies, but to make them fly in formation' - Pacific Crest Outward Bound School, Book of Readings

'I like the feeling when I'm travelling that I am responsible only for myself and my few possessions. In some ways I am in complete control of everything I do. In other ways, I have no choice but to surrender myself to the hands of the fates. The blending of these two states is romantic, enchanting, intoxicating' - Laurie Armstrong, vice president, San Fransisco Convention and Visitors Bureau
