[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there's a difference between travels now and back in the day when it wasn't a zillion people somewhere.  When I look at Rome's Trevi Fountain OMG.  Just OMG.  I was there this summer with my kids and I didn't want to be.  I was there as a student years ago and it was amazing.  you can't even see the fountain in the sea of people now!!

As for going to places not a tier 1 or 2 town - I mean part of travelling is to these tier 1 or 2 towns for the beauty and something that makes it a tier 1 or 2 so I'm not sure why you would only go to the places nobody goes to?  Sure, sometimes you find a diamond but there is a reason why people go to Paris.  There was a year I did Paris 3x just because I had the opportunities.  Now, I wouldn't take my kids there.  You can see it better online.  I would go to Normandy and travel the N towns.  I would go to Mt St Michel in the off season.

I don't know how you see anything unless you go in the offseason to some of these amazing destinations.  As for the road less travelled, it would of course be amazing to see Antarctica but I struggle at the morality of disturbing a place where it's actually awesome because people aren't there LOL!

I just think there are WAY to many people travelling these days and it makes everything suck.  The only thing I prioritize now is going to places where my kids likely won't be able to enjoy in 10-15 years because of global changes. [/quote]

What are the N towns?[/quote]
