Journey= the act of travelling from one place to another, usually a long distance between the places and takes a rather long time Taking a Journey requires: Figuring the Destination • Why is it important? Mapping the Route Consulting others who have ever gone there Planning Excecuting Reflecting • What’s the goal? • How and when you’ll have the journey • Budget is sufficient? • You are there! • Read, listen to, view the site • Take notes • How was the journey? Ever get lost? Any difficulty? • How was the destination? Terrific as expected? Sharing • Organize the experience • Write /report Notice! At any point in your journey it’s okay to stop and ask for directions. We all get a little lost sometimes!
