Your third point is maybe a little narrow minded. People travel for different reasons and long term travel can be stressful and uncomfortable for a lot of people, including myself. If I just spent all day in an unfamiliar country by myself where I know absolutely no one, I don't speak the language, I've been trying new foods for weeks, and I'm exhausted because I did 15 miles and 8 hours of walking today - yeah, maybe I want some comfort food and to watch some Netflix. It doesn't mean I'm not appreciating my travels. If anything it lets me appreciate my traveling more.
- keiferski 6y ago> only eating Western food, reading Harry Potter, and watching Netflix while abroad. I specifically wrote only in my comment.
- wing-_-nuts 6y agoI'm with you on food, food is universal, but when I read a book or watch a movie I want it to be in a language I'm fully fluent in.
- keiferski 6y agoSorry maybe my sentence structure was confusing there. I meant for only to apply to Netflix and Harry Potter too. As in, it’s okay to watch Netflix on a trip, but not exclusively.
- gk1 6y agoAlthough this isn't the way I travel, I agree we shouldn't put down other travel styles. For some people the pleasure of travel comes from merely being in a foreign place.
