journey
意味: An act of travelling from one place to another; a long process of personal change
Journey refers to travelling from one place to another, especially over a long distance. It is more commonly used in British English than 'trip' for regular travel. Figuratively, it describes any extended process of development or change, such as 'a journey of self-discovery'. The word emphasises the process rather than the destination.

ストーリーと豆知識
The word 'journey' comes from Old French 'journée' meaning a day's travel or a day's work. This is why a 'journeyman' was someone who had completed apprenticeship and could charge for a day's work. The same root gives us 'journal' - originally a daily record.
