As seen on Channel 4 Few activities seem to promise is as much happiness as going travelling: taking off for somewhere else somewhere far from home a place with more interesting weather customs and landscapes. But although we are inundated with advice on where to travel to we seldom ask why we go and how we might become more fulfilled by doing so. With the help of a selection of writers artists and thinkers - including Flaubert Edward Hopper Wordsworth and Van Gogh - Alain de Botton's bestselling "The Art of Travel" provides invaluable insights into everything from holiday romance to hotel minibars airports to sightseeing.
