Travel is the movement of people between distant geographical locations. Travel can be done by foot, bicycle, automobile, train, boat, bus, airplane, ship or other means, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip. Travel can also include relatively short stays between successive movements, as in the case of tourism.

People talk about how their bathroom radiator or heated towel rail is plumbed into the hot water rather than the central heating circuit. This means when the central heating is off the radiator can still get hot (to dry towels etc).
