"The difference between tourism and pilgrimage is the intent of the journey. The tourist seeks to escape history, to vacate, involving intentional acts of forgetting, detachment and disengagement. The tourist is generally not asked to consider how one’s life is connected to the history of the place (and its people) one visits. But the postcolonial pilgrim’s journey seeks restoration towards a regained wholeness by a re-centering, re-entering and recovery of history; it is a rediscovery that we are part of a living and vital collective memory. It is not an escape but a returning to the center of pivotal events that marked us, embedded in the land itself. Pilgrimage is about reconnection with each other, with our ancestors, with mystery and the depth of life. As we intentionally journey together, we experience together more than we could alone."
--- Dr. Joanne Doi
