Thanks for this post, Jill. Inspired me to write one over at Brave New Traveler about my own quiet time during travels: http://www.bravenewtraveler.com/2009/11/25/the-importance-of-quiet-time-during-travel/.

Having a quiet time while traveling.. I found it on the top of the mountain! And sitting on the seashore ALONE – watching the birds flew by, feeling the soft breeze touching my skin, waves calmly touches my toes — ahhh this is my ultimate peace!

One of the things, among many, that I love about Mongolia (four trips and counting), is the utter silence that I can experience in the countryside. The loudest sound I hear is the blood circulating in my head.

I’m yet to begin my travels, but this made me that more eager to get on the road. The quieter times at home (such as going for a walk before 9am) are what I love and I imagine that will translate to foreign locations.

This post really spoke to me. My husband and I just returned home from a year-long trip during which I discovered that my favorite time to explore and wander (especially in hectic places) is at dawn or just after. There’s nothing like watching a city wake up, setting up shop, enjoying a cup of tea and chatting with neighbors. I may not always have made it up that early, but when I did, it was always worth it.
