[quote=Anonymous] The views I have heard in this area are humorous. I totally agree there are some who do the tour bus in a narcissistic fashion. For bragging rights, it seems. Funny! We have been VERY fortunate to see MANY places (NOT from a tour bus), but I would not condemn those who have not been. I admire those who take the initiative. It is more difficult for me to admire those who have either had mummy or daddy send them for a semester/year/whatever abroad; or those who have had a job (for example) do all the heavy work for them (i.e.: moving, relocation services, networking). Ideally a travel experience would entail independent, informed planning and cultural experiences, which may or may not include seeing all the sites. But I don't condemn someone for saying the best this or that they ever had was (fill in the blank). Not every experience is YOUR experience, thankfully. The irony is that those who feel "travelled" are usually the first to claim their experience somehow superior. Funny and so very typical. Nothing like acting well traveled. [/quote]
