In “The Art of Travel,” de Botton explores themes from the psychology of travel: how we imagine places before we see them, how we remember beautiful experiences, what happens to us when we find ourselves in a desert, a hotel room, or somewhere in nature? This is a book that will surely change your perspective on the places you visit, but also on the place you live in.
De Botton demystifies travel: it is not exoticism and escape, but an opportunity for introspection, which includes disappointment in hotels, homesickness, finding beauty in the ordinary. Travel is a metaphor for life: expectations deceive us, but a change of perspective opens our eyes. Funny, wise, and elegant, the work reminds us that the art of travel is the art of life – to be present, curious, and grateful.
