If there's an aspect I don't like about myself is that I hate traveling. The whole topic of travel bores me a lot. And really alienates myself from "interesting" conversations.
Just the thought of sleeping somewhere that isn't my place, then carry all things and walking, and having that fear of getting lost all the time is not something I find enjoyable, and lets not forget airports.
I enjoy going out (and I do it a lot) and meeting strangers and I pretty much live in a tourist trap. So it isn't that I'm antisocial.
- kevination 13y agoI too used to think traveling sounded more stressful than it's worth, but going overseas with friends who are veteran globetrotters helped me see the experience through their eyes, and I eventually got infected with the travel bug. Somewhere along the way I figured out how to embrace the discomfort. yrmv of course; there's nothing wrong staying home.
- sujeetsr 13y agoIts reassuring to see that at least one other person has the same viewpoint as me, when I seem to be surrounded by people who 'love' traveling
- igorgue 13y agoI feel you, all my friends "love" traveling too, more like "love talking about traveling" tho. I always think: "Do you know the implications of traveling? Not sleeping on your own bed? Bugs? Most people get sick for trying odd foods? (which is something I'm always down)"
- mixmastamyk 13y agoConsider making a goal you'd like to accomplish, instead of "travel." For example, "I'd like to climb Mt. $X, dive the Great Barrier Reef, or see a Broadway show in NYC."
