Idk it's most like what's the point of going places just to go places? I used to travel a lot and I enjoyed parts of it but it gets old. Especially as the world monocultures itself so you just have people selling Chinese made stuff and coca cola everywhere.

Depends on your goals I guess.

I don't go to places to go to places, I go to places to visit people.

I know people all over the world. A good friend of mine for over 20 years moved to Thailand and is now living in a modern apartment overlooking a beach for $400. You bet I'm visiting.

Another friend moved to Poland and met his 10/10 blonde hair/blue-eyed Lithuanian wife there. Defintiely visiting.

A number of my college students I taught are from Turkey and South America, also defintiely visiting.

I was assigned by a Fortune 500 company to work a year in Hong Kong. Made lots of friends there, definitely visiting.

I'm not "CoNsOoMiNg XpErIeNceZ", I'm going to see people.

Much different than what I thought. Enjoy your travels.

I think for me a big barrier was all the weird facial scans and stuff to travel now. It's very invasive. I still would like to but will be limiting air travel for that reason.

Congrats on having so many connections out there to be with.

Speaking of weird barriers, the thing that really freaked me out was when I was in Amsterdam. At Schiphol airport they have that machine that can take pictures of you naked, even though you have your clothes on. I was given the choice of that or a physical pat-down by a real person. I chose the latter.

Those are pretty common in the US for years now. Last time I flew they had you do a facial scan, it was very weird.
