Travel became distinguishable from pain and began to be regarded as an intellectual pleasur…These factors–the voluntariness of departure, the freedom implicit in the indeterminancies of mobility, the pleasure of travel free from necessity, the notion that travel signifies autonomy and is a means for demonstrating what one ‘really’ is independent of one context or set of defining associations–remain the characteristics of the modern conception of travel.Eric Leed
