journey
Passage between places
A journey is travel from one place to another, typically covering a significant distance or taking considerable time: the journey from London to Paris, a three-day journey through the mountains.
The word emphasizes the process of traveling rather than the destination.
Figuratively, journey describes any extended process of development or change: a spiritual journey, the journey to recovery.
As a verb, to journey is to travel: They journeyed across the desert.
