Travel [agentive]

โ€น Back Next โ€บ
In this frame a Traveler goes on a journey, an activity, generally planned in advance, in which the Traveler moves from a Source location to a Goal along a Path or within an Area. The journey can be accompanied by Co-participants and Baggage. The Duration or Distance of the journey, both generally long, may also be described as may be the Mode_of_transportation. Words in this frame emphasize the whole process of getting from one place to another, rather than profiling merely the beginning or the end of the journey.
