travel writing
travel is not about finding something: it's about getting lost - that is, it is about loosing yourself in a place and a moment.
***
is it that when you travel you can invent yourself anew, and the new person you become is freer and more engaged and more engaging than the persona you left at home? and even if you are not in love, is this still what makes travel so seductive - the creation of a new buyoant version of yourself, unpunctured by the familiriaty of people who know you and know that you have another self?
