Human beings are always

on the run. Slow or fast, they travel the terrain to reach their own destinations. Travelling exposes us to new spaces, brings us to new destinations, and new successes, some of which may sometimes even disappoint us. Here are some examples for you to think over the philosophy of travelling.
