[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TLDR. I a rich old person who has seen the world many times. It’s gotten boring, and crowded with all these tourists. I’m posting because I want everyone to know why this years Christmas card isn’t all of us in Tahiti. [/quote]

Nah, you’re just an unimaginative old geezer with more money than smarts I imagine. [b]There are so many undiscovered places out there[/b], you just have to know where they are. The fact that you mentioned Tahiti just shows me you’re another typical tourist yourself. [/quote]
Not PP. I'm sorry but you are the worst type of tourist. The holier than thou who thinks they are special because they don't go where the other "basic" people go and are now ruining places that should be left alone. [/quote]

Ha ha, OK. Enjoy Barcelona then![/quote]

I've been to plenty of pretty remote places. And off the beaten path places. And I stopped getting excited by them once I realized I was just repeating a theme. There's not that much to differentiate between remote places on one continent with another remote place on another continent. I've had trips that involved four and even five flights just to get to one remote island. Like the Bandas in Indonesia. Was it worth it? Ehh.... I don't regret the trips but at the same time the experiences aren't making me eager for more of the similar kinds of trips involving a lot of effort just to get somewhere remote/off the beaten path. So much of the world is also fairly unremarkable. Local culture these days is all same-same. They all watch TVs and have cell phones. I do like to travel for pleasure but I am realistic about it too.

Doubtful you have been anywhere at all. Just stop already. [/quote]
