Journeys Over Land And Sea has proven how the pioneers overcomed many journeys in order to benefit later generations e.g. Their journeys have provided us with new places to visit because of their discoveries.

Crossing the red sea has allowed Skrzynecki to share his challenges of his journey to Australia, how all the immigrants had pain and suffering but they have overcomed it by visualising a hopeful future. Without these challenges in his poem, the poem would not appeal to anyone.

'A Horse With No Name' By America is about the desert as a metaphor for a challenge. The undertaker of the journey has overcome the harsh conditions of his journey and has reached the city. His journey has interested the responder because of his challenge.
