"Travel To" vs. "Travel In" — What's the Difference?
The preposition changes the meaning:
- "Travel to [country]" → You are going from another country to that destination.
Example: "I will travel to Japan next month." (You're currently outside Japan.)
- "Travel in [country]" → You are moving around inside that country.
Example: "We traveled in Japan for two weeks." (You were already there, touring.)
