Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. Maya Andelou

It’s lovely, but not as beautiful as ‘your’ French château’s 😉.

That’s a beautiful quote! Travelling to diverse places really does broaden the mind and that’s why I also love a quote by Mark Twain:
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.” Cheers 🙂 Aiva xx

That’s a favorite of mine as well. Travel broadens the mind! Thanks, Avia, for your comment. I enjoyed your post on the Dolomites, but I think my comment got lost in cyberspace.

Isn’t that the truth- we are far more alike at our core than any difference we may have on the outside. Beautiful quote 🙂

I very much agree. I always find myself in interesting conversations with locals and other travelers about their lives. I learn so much! This is also a good reason to learn a foreign language and use it on your travels.
