Features: Mérimée was an avid traveler. Travel broadened his horizons, enriched his experiences, and provided material for his creative work. He not only traversed the lands of France but also roamed foreign countries, leaving his footprints in Spain, England, Greece, and Italy. During his travels, he either rode donkeys, took horse-drawn carriages, or walked. Upon arriving at each destination, he would inquire about local customs and traditions, research at libraries or museums, chat with innkeepers in small lodgings, and engage in conversations with guides, gathering stories from all corners of the world.
