The term "armchair" has a negative connotation – as in "armchair quarterback." It means a person is not directly involved in an activity, but has an opinion and advice to offer. However, that term gets a much more positive spin here. Armchair travel is delving into this fantastic, vast world and learning as much as our hearts desire – vicariously. Does armchair travel preclude going into the world as a "real" traveler? Of course not! And at it's best, armchair travel inspires the buying of tickets and booking of excursions. Worth the time for the sheer joy of exploring a place, a culture, or a period of history, armchair travel doesn't have to have a practical purpose or product to justify the time spent. Getting lost in faraway, exotic places, even if just for a little while, is pure delight.
