[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm with you, OP.  I'm happy to have travelled and tried things in my 20s.  I can afford what I want/have now (kids, house admittedly in a lower cost of living area than the DMV, etc).  Maybe life would be easier if I had dived into crazy hours at a high-paying job 10 years ago I'd be able to afford a better house/be less stressed about finances/etc.  But I can't bring myself to regret the fun and experiences I had and the friends I made and the skills I learned.

[b]Interestingly, while I miss travelling a bit I don't mind passing on it now.  I like my bed, I like my home routine, I don't want to find a catsitter, hotels for travelling with kids are SO expensive. [/b] I'm glad I saw a lot of the world when I could just up and go and spend $15/night at youth hostel.[/quote]

I relate to this. I did a lot of traveling in my 20s and the idea of doing anything close to it now, at least the way I did it then, sounds horrificly exhausting. Maybe that will change when the kids are older but nowadaysin my mid-30s, I am perfectly happy to stay home and enjoy quiet. Though I am looking forward to our next island vacay. Otherwise it's ok.
