I understand that, but it can’t actually be literally true. Wherever you live, even if it’s the literal belly button of the world, you won’t notice what all people that pass through your town or live in your town have in common until you go outside and see what living without that thing you have in common is like. And thanks to that, you’ll get a deeper appreciation of what makes your town your home.
It’s not like tech: once you see a new technology at the store you won’t want to go back to your own crappy technology at home. It’s more like reading a book in the same genre, it will only make you appreciate what you love about your favourite more.
I do realise there are experiences I’m missing out on. I miss out on plenty of experiences other than traveling, though.
It would be neat to go somewhere I’m a visible minority, though. I don’t get a lot of that life, except maybe at weddings, big cultural events, etc.
Anyway my wife is a traveller. She gets that wanderlust from time to time, so it’s only inevitable that she take me on one her trips one of these days.
The airport sounds like the worst part tbh so much indignity
