Answer: Characters who are named but given little description are commonplace in travel narratives.

Travel narratives usually focus on the setting rather than the other elements of writing. The main concern that the travel narrative has is that of giving a vivid and faithful image of the setting that is being described. Moreover, as they describe travelling, the characters that appear in these texts are often present for a very short time, or are not well-known to the author. This leads to them being named, but not well described.
