To me, the spirit of exploration is (as i replied to another question in an interview at the tripwolf blog) “The idea of discovering new cultures, neighborhoods, atmospheres, tastes, smells, sounds… basically everything we travelers experience when arriving in a new place… Overall, it’s exciting; not knowing what will happen, what you will see, who you will meet, and how you will like it. As long as we’re not afraid to try new things, whether it’s a food dish, an activity or just turn left instead of right, every day can be an adventure.”

Bombay Sapphire’s The Spirit of Exploration Blog recently held a travel story contest in which bloggers could submit their thoughts on ‘The Spirit Of Exploration”.

Erik Gauger who created the amazing site Notes from the Road wrote, in my opinion, the best entry. You can read and rate it at “What does the spirit of exploration mean to you?”
