The focus of this book is the emotional relationship that individuals and groups have with travel. Emphasis is placed upon the experience of travel itself and attention is given to a variety of travel experiences. Adopting innovative approaches to valuable material ranging from personal experience to empirical research, Gendered Journeys, Mobile Emotions opens up and illuminates an interdisciplinary debate about the gendered nature of travelling.
