In a time when there were no trains or planes, ancient adventurers traveled by boat for months to reach unknown continents.

They must have suffered a lot during their journey, being washed away by rough waves or having their treasure stolen by pirates.

The Silk Road, which connected Asia and Europe, played an important role in international trade at the time.

We live in an era where movement is convenient.
Like the adventurers in this book, I wanted to visit many different countries and regions during my lifetime, interact with the local people, eat local cuisine, and enjoy the natural scenery.
