The Power of Travel: A Passport to Adventure, Discovery, and Growth





A remarkable book that taps travel's unmatched capacity as a wellspring of self-discovery and personal growth.

"The Power of Travel is an inspiring celebration of travel's wondrous possibilities. A gift to ourselves and others, it is certain to enhance, enrich, and expand every traveler's soul."--Jack Canfield

While readers love travel books that take them on "armchair spiritual adventures" under the suns of foreign lands, most guidebooks only help people decide where to stay and how much to pay. The Power of Travel is the first handy and concise source for bringing travel to a new level of personal experience, enabling readers to more fully appreciate and enrich their own weekend jaunt, vacation adventure, or business trip.

Easily kept in a knapsack or briefcase, The Power of Travel brims with a travel expert's wisdom on turning time spent in the town down the road or across the globe into a journey of personal insight and revelation. Steve Zikman's brief and reflective essays present today's hurried travelers with countless opportunities to look both outward and inward.

The Power of Travel will truly take readers where they need to go, whether they are already on the road or restlessly awaiting the next chapter in their travels. Indeed, it will be a trusted and empowering traveler's staple for many years to come.Subtitled A Passport to Adventure, Discovery, and Growth, this little pocket book is full of traveling insights--from the philosophical to the practical, the poetic to the possible. An experienced traveler who has journeyed to 52 countries on six continents, author Steve Zikman is also the coauthor of the forthcoming books Chicken Soup for the Traveler's Soul and Chicken Soup for the Outdoor Soul.

"Beyond its refreshing and revitalizing qualities, travel has the unmatched capacity to be a wellspring of self-discovery and personal growth, a path to ourselves," Zikman writes in the introduction. In more than 100 short inspirational essays with titles as varied as "We Trust Our Intuition," "In the Heartland of Our Confidence," "Romance," "Travel Is Ageless," and "Conversation," his thought-provoking ideas and useful observations are applicable whether you're planning a weekend outing, family vacation, or solo business trip. Related quotes from fellow travelers such as Mother Teresa, Anaïs Nin, John Steinbeck, and Ralph Waldo Emerson add interest to every page. --Kathryn True
