Travelling gives you a lot of time to think. And ironically for me, it gives me time to think about why I travel. Given how much I’ve travelled over the years, I’ve had many hours – days, in fact – to contemplate this question… and yet I still don’t think I know the answer. Sure, it’s great to experience new things and see incredible new places. But nothing can be as mentally challenging and strangely stimulating as travelling, in particular through the developing world. It’s a rollercoaster ride of emotions, and these last few weeks have been no exception.
