Are you a tourist or a traveller?
“Tunner, we’re not tourists. We’re travelers,” Kit explains.
“Oh. What’s the difference?”
Port chimes in, “A tourist is someone who thinks about going home the moment they arrive, Tunner.”
“Whereas a traveler might not come back at all,” Kit finishes.
Me? I am a business traveller.
“My only plan is, I have no plan.” 390.
“Kit has days when everything in the world is merely a sign for something else. A white Mercedes can’t just simply be a white Mercedes. It must have a secret meaning about the whole of life. Everything is an omen. Nothing can just be what it is.” 391.
