'travel-linked' originates from the combination of 'travel' and 'linked', where 'travel' means 'to go from one place to another' and 'linked' means 'connected'.

'travel' changed from the Old French word 'travail' meaning 'work, labor' and eventually became the modern English word 'travel'. 'Linked' comes from the Old English 'hlinc' meaning 'ridge, bank'.

Initially, 'travel' meant 'to toil or labor', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to journey'. 'Linked' has maintained its meaning of 'connected'.
