Regardless of your journey, you can put a little pilgrim in your travels and find your own personal jubilation.
—Rick Steves
Ideally, travel broadens our perspectives personally, culturally, and politically. Suddenly, the palette with which we paint the story of our lives has more colors.
—Rick Steves
Globetrotting destroys ethnocentricity, helping us understand and appreciate other cultures. Rather than fear the diversity on this planet, celebrate it. Among your most prized souvenirs will be the strands of different cultures you choose to knit into your own character. The world is a cultural yarn shop, and “back door” travelers are weaving the ultimate tapestry.
—Rick Steves
Be fanatically positive and militantly optimistic. If something is not to your liking, change your liking.
