So, have you noticed that a large number of people on this site say they want to go to X country/place before they die. I imagine they pick this as a goal, because it is actually really easy to achieve and you can't really fail at it if you actually try. All you need to do is get on a plane...
People seem really scared to set goals for themselves they may not be able to achieve (to bad those are all the really valuable goals).

- GFischer 16y agoI agree that it isn't -that- difficult to travel, but I also assume you're from a 1st world country. For those of us in the 3rd world (Uruguay in my case), it's not "really easy" - it represents possibly a year or several years worth of earnings, plus a lot of diplomatic hassles (haven't been able to visit the US yet because of visa requirements, for example), and the fear of being turned back at the border after all that. For many people in my country, traveling (possibly on the wedding trip) is the high point in their lives.
- ryanjmo 16y agoNice, I did not think of that perspective! Thanks.
