==Origins==
The [[word]] originates from the Middle [[English]] word travailen ("to toil"), which comes from the Old French word travailler ("travail").[1] A person who travels is called a traveler (U.S.) or traveller (UK).
==Description==
'''Travel''' is the [[change]] in location of people on a trip through any means of transport from one location to another. Travel is most commonly for recreation (as part of tourism or to visit [[friends]] and [[family]]), for business or for commuting; but may be for numerous other reasons, such as migration, fleeing [[war]], etc.

Travel may occur by walking or human-powered mode, or through [[mechanical]] vehicles, either as [[private]] or [[public]] transport.
Travel may be local, regional, national or international. In some countries, non-local internal travel may require an internal [[passport]], while international travel typically requires a passport and visa.
