The stages of travel and return
I came across this natty little image of the stages of the travel experience (which they call rather pompously, 'the intercultural sojourn').
They also call this a W curve - though this wasn't the image brought to my mind I must confess. Maybe it can give comfort to those who have just got home and are, well, somewhere past the right nipple.
You can find it at
Myths-Dreams-Symbols- The Psychology of Dreams
along with an academically inclined discussion of the hero and his journey in myths and stories.
