A:Paul, in his own epistles, tells us nothing about the "first missionary journey", giving a quite different itinerary. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that the three journeys are only a convenient classification developed by students of Acts of the Apostles. Acts makes this journey an apprenticeship for Paul, under the guidance of Barnabas, whereas Paul himself says that he received the gospel from no man, and suggests that Barnabas was always his assistant. In this account it is also the occasion for an unethical miracle performed by Paul, who blinded bar-Jesus to prevent him influencing the Roman governor of Cyprus. This at least proves that Paul was able to perform miracles at will.

How did Paul's first and second missionary journeys differ?

Most Bible's have a section in the back which contains these on a map of the regions to which he traveled. They may either be illustrated separately or, if they are put on the same map, it is easy to compare them. It may also be worth noting that Paul made a number of journeys which were not missionary journeys, including a visit to Arabia after he was converted. These journeys will not be included on such maps. A Bible Atlas will also have details of the missionary journeys of Paul, often in better detail.
