Answer:

He traveled there because of his illness.

Step-by-step explanation:

President Franklin D. Roosevelt traveled to Georgia because of his illness, polio. The town of Warm Springs, Georgia, acted as a "home away from home" for FDR. (His house was even nicknamed "the little White House.") The warm waters there eased the pain of his disease, and was a haven for all people who were stricken by the illness.
