Anais Nin visits Tahiti, where "what predominates is the caressing atmosphere, the scent of tiara flowers, the tinkle of shell necklaces, the beauty of the brown women. The atmosphere unties your nerves, opens the pores of your skin so that you feel like a flower opening in the dew."
People have a need to dream, to hope, especially when going through a rough patch, it is helpful to dream about a place you've visited or hope to visit. You can transport yourself out of your current experience, if only for a few moments.
