Travel is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations for any purpose and any duration, with or without any means of transport. Travel also includes relatively short stays between successive movements. Movements between locations requiring only a few minutes are not considered as travel. As an activity, "travel" also covers all the activities performed during a travel (movement).

Travel is a wider concept than a trip. A round trip is a particular type of travel whereby a person moves from his/her usual residence to one or several distant locations and returns. A trip can also be part of a round trip.

Travel is most commonly done for recreation or to visit friends and family (generally as part of tourism), for business or for commuting; but may be for numerous other reasons, such as health care, migration, fleeing war, etc. Travel may occur by walking or human-powered mode, or through mechanical vehicles, either as private or public transport.

Travel may be local, regional, national (domestic) or international. In some countries, non-local internal travel may require an internal passport, while international travel typically requires a passport and visa.

The word originates from the Middle English word travailen ("to toil"), which comes from the Old French word travailler ("travail"). A person who travels is called a traveler (U.S.) or traveller (UK).

How could traveling the speed of light lead us to time travel?
Q. In a question, someone answered that if we were able to travel the speed of light, then we could somehow achieve time travel. How would this happen? Also, how could we make time travel possible? Is there some formula to it? I think time travel is a really awesome concept, and I want to learn more about it.

A. SpaceTime is the 4th Dimension The faster you travel through it the faster time passes by. Curving spacetime causes time to slow down Earths mass effecting spacetime causing a curve But in reality it is 4D so the curve is more like this: The time in empty space travels faster than time on Earth due to Earth causing a curve in spacetime Its like this the curve means more space for something to travel across ie time where as a smooth spacetime takes less space for something to travel across like someone running across a valley while another runs across a flat surface. Traveling faster is like running faster than someone else you will get to the finish line before them ie travel faster in space youll be in the future before the time you… [cont.]

Deduct travel expenses from tripif photographing scenics & submitting them to stock photo businesses?
Q. I'm a retired pro photographer and want to travel (with my husband as assistant) and take photos to submit to stock photography companies. Scenics, local cultures, wildlife, etc. How much of my travel expenses can I legally deduct from my USA income tax? Opinions? Experiences?
Asked by sheek Txn - Sat Feb 2 10:00:35 2008 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments

A. If the principal purpose of your travel is for business then you can deduct those costs, but you must prorate them between the business and personal purposes. If the principal purpose is personal then you can only deduct the portions of lodging and meals (at 50% on the meals) that are directly attributable to the business purpose. No travel and transportation is deductible. If the IRS determines that this is more of a hobby than a true business they will further limit any deductions that are allowable to the income you generated from selling the pictures. In this case the income goes on line 21 of Form 1040 and the allowable expenses go on Schedule A as a Miscellaneous Deduction.

How do I travel from London to France via train?
Q. This weekend (12th April-13th April) I need to get from London to Berck Sur Mer in France (roughly about a 2 hour drive west along the coast from Calais) for the kite festival. I will be travelling on my own and the travel websites aren't being very helpful as they are either for train journeys within the UK or just within France. Please help someone!
Asked by Rahhh - Tue Apr 8 09:14:56 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Berck-sur-Mer doesn't seem to be served by railway, but nearby villages as Verton and Le Touquet/Etaples does. You'll need to use the Eurostar from London to France then do a minimum of two changes with local trains and/or buses. My favotire trick to search in european timetables is the swiss federal railway's website available at: or the french verision if you prefer:
