Traveling opens us up to new experiences. We see shades of the world we didn’t know existed, literally and metaphorically. Discovering a new hue of the sunset against a different horizon, or a flower in colors you had never seen before are things that change us. Novelty transforms, inspires and leaves a creative mark on our sensibilities. Travel, it is said, makes us better designers.
“Soon it got dusk, a grapy dusk, a purple dusk over tangerine groves and long melon fields; the sun the color of pressed grapes, slashed with burgandy red, the fields the color of love and Spanish mysteries.”
– Jack Kerouac, On the Road
