7 The difference between travel and tourism is simple. A TOURIST experiences disconnected sights and sounds and enjoys them without drawing meaning. A TRAVELER roams the earth, digests what he sees and hears, and collects them in a framework of understanding, which he both brings to his travels and deepens with travels. The former is a pleasant interlude in your life. The latter is about life itself. — George Friedman, STRATFOR Founder & CEO
