Traveling by book is the original virtual travel experience! It's been THE way to transport yourself to another world for centuries. Books can bring you to a different place or time period in the real world or an entirely fictional place. When reading, we use our imaginations, exercise our minds, and travel virtually (but without the involvement of a screen). We'll discuss our early experiences reading, finding the time to read, why read at all, our favorite travel reads, getting travel inspiration from books, and more.
