Appreciation for simplicity grows through travel from "summary" of Travels with Myself and Another by Martha Gellhorn

The more one travels, the more one realizes the value of simplicity. Life on the road teaches us to appreciate the little things - a warm meal, a comfortable bed, a friendly smile. In a world that is constantly changing and evolving, simplicity becomes a refuge, a source of comfort and stability. As we move from place to place, we learn to let go of the unnecessary and focus on what truly matters. Through my own travels, I have come to understand that simplicity is not about deprivation or lack, but about clarity and focus. It is about stripping away the layers of distraction and getting to the heart of things. In the chaos of unfamiliar surroundings, we seek out the familiar and the essential. We find joy in the simplest of pleasures - a beautiful sunset, a delicious meal, a good conversation. Traveling also teaches us the value of patience and resilience. We learn to adapt to new situations and make do with what we have. In the face of adversity, we discover our own strength and resourcefulness. Through challenges and obstacles, we grow and evolve, becoming more open-minded and flexible in our thinking. In a world that is often overwhelming and complicated, simplicity offers a sense of peace and contentment. It allows us to slow down, to savor the moment, and to appreciate the beauty of the world around us. Through travel, we come to see that less is often more, and that the most valuable experiences are often the simplest ones. It is through this journey of exploration and discovery that our appreciation for simplicity deepens and grows.
