Traveling across the world used to be a big thing.\u00a0 Well, it still is, if you think about the amazing airplane that not only defy gravity, but holds 200+ people and tons of luggage with it.<\/p>\n
But most people nowadays take for granted our ability to travel thousands of miles in a relatively short time.<\/p>\n
I will be going halfway across the world for our vacation – in a mere 13 hours. And during that time on the plane, I could probably finish reading a couple of good books.<\/p>\n
I grew up with my dad encouraging us and giving us the opportunity to travel. I went to Taiwan, Japan, and Hong Kong by myself after college. It would’ve been really fun if I was mature enough to enjoy it, and if I had a companion. That experience did not instill in me the travel bug.\u00a0 I can take it or leave it.<\/p>\n
