Synopsis:

Travel abroad is a central ritual of Australian life. Those who could afford it before the age of mass travel might have been few, but the idea of travel, its fantasies of escape and renewal, has no budget. Being there confers a special right to speak of other worlds, but meanings shift and change with time and between travelers, just as favoured destinations are carried in and out on the tides of fashion. In travel and travel writing we map how we imagine the world and our place in it.
