I've never traveled far, but I would imagine the most remarkable thing about it is that it's simply good fun, like sports. I just don't buy the notion that one's worldview is necessarily constrained without physically to

Convince me otherwise: I don't travel because I see it as the pinnacle of vapid consumerist excess. People who regale me with tales of their travels will recount the great food, the nice people, the architecture, the views. You burned

I use Fastmail which gives you a wildcard catchall alias, *@example.com , but you can do this even self-hosting with postfix, and I'd bet most decent email providers who let you use a custom domain also have a catchall email feature.

A good but painful lesson: do not suffer your job, because it will not suffer you. Suffer your family, your friends, your hobbies, and other passions. The job is just a means to those more important ends.
