BEI Resident Scholar Advisor, Liam Heneghan recently published an article in The Wire, entiteled “Here’s a New Word for that Feeling When Travel Makes Everything New.” The word being: Allokataplixis- The gift usually unacknowledged, that the traveler offers the place they visit. Heneghan focuses on that magical feeling of being swept away by new sights, and experiences, as well as the valuable perspective that all life can offer in it of itself. This article was inspired by traveling with his students in Ireland this past summer.
