[quote=Anonymous]I don’t post on social media.  Not sure why multiple posters think that is the only reason people travel.  You have a sad, cynical and narrow outlook.

Travel is my biggest hobby, and l drive a crappy car etc to afford it.   I like the planning and researching part, and reading about the history and culture.  I don’t use travel agents. I love natural and man made beauty, and being in different cultures.  I don’t stay in resorts and l don’t drink alcohol most days.  Sometimes l order food by pointing (like l’ll have what he’s having) and l don’t totally know what it is.  It usually works out but there have been some awful surprises.  Which is fine, we have a good laugh and go get something else.  Fermented bean curd, which l thought from the look of it was going to be cheese, was memorably the grossest thing ever.

Ya some travel talk is dreadful, but if the person doesn’t have any good stories from their regular life they probably don’t have any good travel stories either.   [/quote]
