John Cabot never led an expedition to Asia. However, when he was alive, it was believed that the New World was actually Asia, so he would have thought he had gotten to Asia.
His motives for trying to get to Asia were to acquire expensive items, such as silks, spices, and jewels.
He traveled to the Americas because at the time, sailing west from Europe was thought to be the quickest way to get to Asia.
