People may want to be a pilgrim for reasons such as seeking spiritual growth, connecting with their faith or beliefs, experiencing personal introspection, fulfilling a religious obligation, or witnessing sacred sites. It can also be a way to challenge oneself, disconnect from modern distractions, and connect with nature and other like-minded individuals on a journey of self-discovery.
