Why We Travel: Keynote from Pico Iyer

Discover storytelling through the lens of bestselling writer Pico Iyer.

In this inspiring TravelCon keynote from Pico, you'll rediscover the "why" behind your own travel journeys and the profound impact they can have on your communities. Sharing a glimpse into his writing process, Pico gives insights on capturing and conveying travel experiences authentically.

With his keen-eyed observations, Pico Iyer is a chronicler of the desire to seek new frontiers and view familiar terrain through fresh eyes. “Arguably the world’s greatest living travel writer,” according to Outside magazine, he is the author of two novels and ten works of nonfiction. The Utne Reader included him alongside Noam Chomsky and Václav Havel as “one of 100 visionaries worldwide who could change your life.”
