8. Lines 119–125: How does Salak show that she dismisses the idea that people take journeys only to see a place and learn about people?

Answer 1

Salak dismisses the idea that people travel only to see places or learn about others by explaining that travel is also an inward journey. In lines 119–125, she emphasizes that traveling forces people to confront themselves—their fears, assumptions, limits, and identity. By focusing on self-discovery rather than sightseeing or observation of others, she shows that the most meaningful result of travel is personal growth, not just external knowledge.
