Travel vs. Trip vs Journey


1)Travel vs. Trip

-TRAVEL is normally a VERB.
Meaning: To go from one place to another, especially over a long distance.
e.g: I travel from one city to other city by plane. 

-TRIP is normally a NOUN.
Meaning: The act of going to a place, often for a short period of time, and returning. 
e.g :Jono is currently on a business trip in Perth. 
e.g: We went on a trip to the beach. 
*”Go on a trip” “Take a trip”
A day trip
A business trip
A round trip = a return trip 


2)Trip vs. Journey

-A trip usually refers to traveling to a place (for short period) and returning back to where you started.
-A journey usually implies traveling from one place to another, especially in a vehicle (not necessarily returning to where you started). It sometimes refers to the length of time taken to go from one place to another. One piece of travel usually long distance. 

e.g: The train journey took us through a valley past rolling hills. 
e.g: It’s a two-hour train journey from York to London. 
e.g:I love going on long journeys
(Be careful with the plural: journeys NOT journies.)
e.g: He views his life as a spiritual journey towards a greater understanding of his faith.
