L'art du voyage

De Botton weaves philosophical insights with personal reflections; I'm curious what sparked his interest in this relationship and how he decided on these specific themes.

The essays made me reflect on my own journeys and the expectations I bring. I wonder if others found their perceptions of travel and art changed after reading.

The selection felt very intentional, blending famous artworks with personal anecdotes. I'm interested in how much of this was planned versus spontaneous.
