For what do we travel?

I used to think traveling is made up, at least partially, of photo taking, so that we can share our experience with friends and family when we get back or retrieve memory from the records when we try to recall our past years later. So I did take hundreds of megabytes of photos in last few years in my journeys.

But this time in Tioman, I did not bring a camera. Neither have I left any descriptions about the trip as what I usually did. I did not feel like taking photos, recording trivial things, or taking whatever action to recount we did in these days. On the third day before we got onto the ferry, two asked me about my feeling about this three-day trip. I replied:"it's okay. At least I have sufficient sleep." Yes, I am relaxed after the trip because my sleep is now fully charged again. Yet, when I get back, I still have to deal with inquiries about what I did, and the request for photos.

For what did I go to Pulau Tioman? To sleep. Mission accomplished.
then
For what do you travel?


P.S. I just feel like blogging in English. That is all.
