Team outing? yeah one of those corporate drama of spending money at the cost of the customer's billed hours.
So what is traveling? Is that just traveling to some well known location and getting one photographed at various locations and subsequently upload them to a photo sharing site, share it with friends. Is that all travel is?
Traveling always amazed me but I hate being a tourist. When I think of my past, I never participated in class tours, never participated in a school excursion. I never understood why I used to hate them, but today when I am aware of my cognition, I am trying to reason those behavior. Maybe because I hated to be a part of the guided tour, or maybe because I wanted to travel to those places on my own.
When I go to a new place, I prefer to be the part of the place, to drink a bowl of Thuppa when in Leh or eat dosa and fish curry when I am in Kerala. So I travel for the heck of traveling, I know few of my acquaintance who really has travel in there blood and do it in a spiritual level. I am sure that majority of the travelers are pseudo travelers and I am sure It takes a lot to authentically say that "I love to travel", I am yet to discover that.

Everthing depends on the definition that we give to the word Travel.
what is it? ride in your own vehicle or be a co rider and go on and on untill you are tired. and just say I am tired of travelling.
this is just similar to what we are doing in our daily life while going back & forth from office.
For me travelling is something different but may not match your vision. It is just like- have a proper destination and a fixed maximum time to achieve that and
I can do whatever I want in the mean time. but reaching on time gives me extra pleasure.
and better late than Never.
I am with Lao Tzu :)
A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intend on arriving.
