Travel needn’t be so homoginzed. Go do what you like. If you like books go to the library. If you like getting lost go find a lonely road and follow it.I think the key to great travel isn’t doing what you’re ‘supposed’ to do. It’s involving yourself in the things that drive you, that get you out fo bed in the morning. Maybe you’re really stoked about getting up and doing nothing in the morning. Maybe you reall like driving, so get in a car and drive. Maybe sports is your thing, so go see another cultures take on the subject. I think that all too often we’re driven by a sense of duty to confirm what we know is already there. Have you seen x? Have you been to the y? Did you see the z? I think that we would fair better as travelers if we took a little time to reflect inward and ask ourselves,
‘What is it that I really enjoy doing? What is it that brings me the most happiness? And how do incorporate that into my travels.’
Personal inventory beckons and it’s returns may be as eye opening and discovery laden as the road it takes you down.
Seriously couldn’t have put it better myself.
All I have to say is Crazy Horse (and Starbucks?) : )
