journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads
and accommodations.

The important
thing about travel in foreign lands is that it breaks the
speech habits and makes you blab less, and breaks the
habitual space-feeling because of different village plans
and different landscapes. It is less important that there
are different mores, for you counteract these with your own
reaction-formations.
