My out of country experiences are limited to Mexico and the USA (Washington, Oregon, California, Hawaii, and Arizona). That's it.
In my dreams, I would love to travel more, but I am not what you would call an adventurous person. I would need to feel secure or at least travel with confident (and patient) persons. I am not a 'WANDER WOMAN' by any stretch. I do love to see new sights, though, so in the right scenario, world travelling would be a blast.
I do love road trips. You never know what you might see or discover!
My latest excursion lasted 4 days and it was BLISS. A long weekend away to a remote, rustic cabin with three other women, two of them my dear sisters and one 'sister at heart'. There is something about leaving home and doing something completely different. In this case, it was somewhere I had never been before, about 5 hours away. It was relaxing, scenic, quiet, and satisfying in so many ways. The biggest challenge was driving along a rutted, puddled, remote dirt road to our destination. I wasn't looking for more adventure than that!
Contrast that with my twenty-something daughter's preferred adventures and you might wonder if she and I are truly related?
Last Spring (for four months), she solo travelled S. America. Yeah. I am in awe of her determination to do what it takes to have her adventures. Yikes. In a few weeks, she leaves for SE Asia. In the planning stages now, but her ticket to fly out has been purchased! Oh the places she goes! Follow her travels here.
Do you go away from home regularly? Would you rather travel the world or stay close to home, if you had the option? Would you prefer to solo travel, travel with a friend, or join a tourist group? What destination is on your bucket list?
