Then there is the enlightened traveler. To this type, travel is not an escape. It is a deliberate life growth decision. For this kind of purposeful vagabonder, travel is a way to grow. It is often well planned out – if not in terms of specific itinerary, more so in the sense that it was premeditated. It was planned for financially. It was a lifestyle decision. A rejection of the suffocating norm. An embrace of diversity. A look into how much more life and the world has to offer.
