Pilgrims historically left Europe for various reasons, primarily seeking spiritual fulfillment, religious freedom, and the opportunity to embark on sacred journeys to holy sites. Many were motivated by the desire to escape religious persecution or to participate in the Crusades. Others sought personal transformation and adventure through pilgrimages to destinations like Jerusalem, Santiago de Compostela, or Rome, believing that these journeys would bring them closer to God or grant them spiritual merits.

The Pilgrims were required to obtain permission from the English government to leave Europe, which involved securing a charter or license for their voyage. They faced challenges in obtaining this permission due to their dissenting religious views, which were not aligned with the Church of England. Additionally, they needed to arrange for funding and a ship to undertake the perilous journey to the New World. Ultimately, they set sail on the Mayflower in 1620, seeking religious freedom and a new life.
