What is the significance of the quote "If a journey doesn't have something to teach you about yourself, then what kind of journey is it?" Please help!!

In the quote, “ To travel is to take a journey into yourself, by Danny Kaye, it talks about how a trip is a time to learn more about yourself.

I agree with her because while after you search for the unfamiliar you see your own life and try to fix the faults in it.Before, her life was always the same, “ Nothing seemed to change; nothing took on a new variety.” line 223-224 In detail, Salak was living a repetitive schedule that was imaginably boring. This was why she wanted to take on the challenge and risk everything to see what the world had to offer her. She wanted to discover how she could turn her life around. However, if the opportunity did not come to her, then she would be missing out on the greater gifts of life because she realized how she was living, after her journey. The voyage was a time of reflection and realization.
