Abroad
To be abroad, or bound for it, carries the pull of elsewhere — a longing for new ground, new air, a self that travel might reveal. The dream often speaks less of literal journeys than of the wish to step outside the familiar for a while, and what we hope to find by doing so.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for abroad, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you are abroad, or going abroad, foretells that you will soon, in company with a party, make a pleasant trip, and you will find it necessary to absent yourself from your native country for a sojourn in a different climate.
