quotes by Rolf Potts

"The value of your travels does not hinge on how many stamps you have in your passport when you get home -- and the slow nuanced experience of a single country is always better than the hurried, superficial experience of forty countries."
— Rolf Potts (Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel)

"Travel, I was coming to realize, was a metaphor not only for the countless options life offers but also for the fact that choosing one option reduces you to the parameters of that choice. Thus, in knowing my possibilities, I also knew my limitations."
— Rolf Potts
