Why do we travel? What is the "job to be done" (by travelling)?

What is our objective? Our intention? - To attend event, to meet (professional colleagues, friends, family), to connect (with people, places), to experience (new, different environments and lifestyles - sights, sounds, sensations, tastes, smells ... ), to leave behind (let go-temporarily or permanently, slow down or speed up, change pace ... space ... place)

How do we travel? - Physical (walking, public transport - wheels, single-multi, road, rail, water-river-sea, air ... space), Virtual, in our Minds (reflection, imagination, reading, audio, images-pictures, video, AR-VR-Mixed Reality)

How do we spend our time? Daily, Weekly, Seasonally, Annually? On a regular basis? Over a lifetime?

Who do we spend our time with? What do we spend our time, energy, attention on? Engage with? Commit (to)?

Essentially, who and what we spend our time, energy, attention and resources on is who we are, and become.
