Levison Wood'A beautiful, insightful and thought-provoking book with the power to change how you see travel - and life'. Pip StewartWhy We Travel is a smart-thinking travel book, which uses travel as a window into human motivations. It explores what we can gain from venturing out into the world.It threads together reflective memoir, evocative travelogue, research, conversation, advice and big ideas.

By unpacking these motivations, and digging into the science of where they come from, this book asks how travel intersects with the rest of our lives, answering key questions such as: Why do we travel? How do we do it better? Can it help us to live more fulfilling lives?Why We Travel will give you a fascinating insight into where your motivations come from and inspire you to think about travel from a new and exciting perspective.
