The word "travel" possibly stems from the Old French term travail, meaning 'work'. First recorded in the 14th century, it finds roots in Middle English travailen, linked to the Old French travailler ('to work strenuously'). The connection extends to the term "travail," denoting struggle. Simon Winchester suggests a shared root with "tripalium," a Roman torture device. This historical link may reflect the arduous nature of ancient travel. Today, travel's ease varies by destination and means, from Mt. Everest to a cruise ship. Michael Kasum distinguishes between tourists and true world travelers, a concept debated in travel sociology.
