sojourner

Description

A sojourner is someone who justifies exposing oneself to unknown landscapes while finding the journey’s selfies more important than any destination. They vow to pursue freedom yet remain tethered to hostel Wi-Fi and constantly hunt for hidden power outlets. Sometimes they carry more from self-help books than in their backpacks, measuring the trip’s value by its physical burden. They preach newfound encounters but inevitably recycle the same souvenirs as anecdotes. In the end, the title of ‘sojourner’ is nothing more than a branded escape from mundane life.
