Travelling Simply to Simply Travel

**A personal exploration of what it is to be Human through the lens of travelling on a budget.**

It’s important to be at ease and find joy and contentment amid the ordinary and the mundane. But there is also a place for new sights, new sounds, new tastes, new smells. new physical experiences, and new thoughts. This is true even when the new experience isn’t necessarily pleasant, as you would know if you had ever used a public toilet in Tibet.

Travelling Simply to Simply Travel is an evolving blog that tries to combine budget travel advice with smatterings of ‘wisdom’ from the early Buddhist Pali texts alongside and in combination with ancient and modern philosophies, modern psychologies, and ever-advancing neurosciences.

Life is short, and the world is wide. Wishing you safe arrivals wherever you go.
