Travel is a generic term for the process of going from point A to point B or the act of traveling in general. For example: - World travel gives you a different perspective. Journey is a specific "piece" of travel, usually a long distance. For example: - The journey took us 18 months to complete.

"To travel" is a common way to talk about going from one place to another, typically a different city, state, or country: "he is traveling to Europe today," "I traveled a lot as a child," or "I enjoy traveling." "To journey," in my opinion, implies a great distance or effort. You would not use it conversationally very much. You'd also hear it in a storytelling or archaic context: "Frodo journeyed to Mount Doom to destroy the One Ring." Finally, you could use it as a device for exaggeration: "I journeyed all the way downtown only to find out the restaurant was closed." Downtown is not actually that far, but I'm exaggerating the effort for dramatic emphasis. Journey (as a noun) can also refer specifically to a theoretical effort, like "my journey toward finding happiness" or "life is a journey." Travel cannot be used this way.
