In the mid-nineteenth century, as new routes opened up, a new
generation of travellers embarked on excursions to India, China and
Japan. Globetrotters - leisure tourists with a keen interest in
experiencing authentic culture - flocked to the East, casting aside
preconceptions and gravitating towards what they hoped to be the
unchanged landscapes and traditions of Eastern cultures. The relics
of their travels - the food they consumed and the souvenirs they
brought back - allowed globetrotters to distinguish themselves from
common tourists. They proudly returned with accounts that presented
a global East, challenging public assumptions about the cultures
they had visited and charting a journey of self-transformation
through travel.
