Inspiration... travel

Este fin de semana vuelo a Dortmund a ver a una amiga, por lo que previsiblemente no volveré a postear hasta el lunes. Necesito un descansito antes de las vacaciones.

Eso sí... tenéis varias páginas a las que poder recurrir en mi ausencia, pues como sabéis, podéis seguirme a través de TWITTER, FACEBOOK, TUMBLR y PINTEREST. Mientras, os dejo con unas imágenes inspiradoras sobre los viajes...

For traveling broadens your mind...

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” ― Lao Tzu

“When one is traveling, everything looks brighter and lovelier. That does not mean it IS brighter and lovelier; it just means that sweet, kindly home suffers in comparison to tarted-up foreign places with all their jewels on.” 

― Catherynne M. Valente, The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making

“Not all those who wander are lost.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.” ― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.” ― Marcel Proust

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.” ― Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 7: 1966-1974

“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” ― Gustave Flaubert

“Augustus," I said. "Really. You don't have to do this." "Sure I do," he said. "I found my Wish." "God, you're the best," I told him. "I bet you say that to all the boys who finance your international travel," he answered.” ― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” ― Henry Miller

“I read; I travel; I become” ― Derek Walcott

“A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our door step once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over, because the film of memory continues running on inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill. Indeed, there exists something like a contagion of travel, and the disease is essentially incurable.”― Ryszard Kapuściński, Travels with Herodotus

“To move, to breathe, to fly, to float,

To gain all while you give,

To roam the roads of lands remote,

To travel is to live.”

― Hans Christian Andersen, The Fairy Tale of My Life: An Autobiography

“You have to get lost before you can be found.”

― Jeff Rasley, Bringing Progress to Paradise: What I Got from Giving to a Mountain Village in Nepal

“Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey.” ― Pat Conroy

“Make voyages. Attempt them. There's nothing else.” ― Tennessee Williams, Camino Real

“I wandered everywhere, through cities and countries wide. And everywhere I went, the world was on my side.” ― Roman Payne, Rooftop Soliloquy

“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky - all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” ― Cesare Pavese

“Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

“To travel is to live.” ― Hans Christian Andersen, The Fairy Tale of My Life: An Autobiography

“Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you've never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground.” ― Judith Thurman

¡Que paséis buen fin de semana!
