3.0
The first half of the book is made up of things that are very true about travel, but are the things you don’t write about! Like the realization that travel shows you just how inessential you are to life at home. It goes on without you while you’re gone. Or that trains carry you through life, but apart from it.
The second half of the book is travel stories. This half was a faster read than the first half. It was an interesting read, but didn’t exactly keep me wanting to pick up the book.
I liked the beginning best where the author talked about traveling because of books.
