Riassunto

Few things are as exciting as the idea of travelling somewhere far from home. So why are we so often dissatisfied with the reality of travel? In THE ART OF TRAVEL, Alain de Botton, takes us on a journey through the satisfactions and disappointments of travelling. Dealing - among other things - with airports, exotic carpets and hotel mini-bars, this humorous and thought-provoking book reveals the hidden motivations, expectations and complications of our voyages into the wide world.
