Just because places of learning aren't frequently shown in-game doesn't necessarily mean they don't exist; they're just unimportant on a mechanical level outside of the class guilds and thus no development time was spared on it just for the sake of minor immersion.
Final Fantasy XIV may be the most RP-friendly MMO I've ever played, but some things are still on the onus of our imaginations to fill in. This would be one of those times.
Heh, I drag pretty much all my RP partners out into the game world, but given the expansiveness it's rare for us to bump into anyone else outside of the odd silent on-looker or two.

Most of my people live on ships or travel continuously but I often here people talking about traveling very long distances in a days time (Ul'dah to Gridania etc). Maybe I'm wrong but it seems like teleporting/airships are not common use items going by the opening scenes of the game consisting of us traveling to the city by ship/cart etc. Walking, chocobos, boats and the like seem like they are more common in Eorzea for adventurers and merchants to get around. I'd like to see more people who crew ships or ferries, who travel between towns with supplies and good and the like or even just everyday adventurers on the road.
