[quote=Anonymous]Roughly half the people I know, including DH and I, have jobs that involve a decent amount of travel. We don't talk about vacation destinations, but we might exchange stories about certain airports or airlines...maybe a restaurant to try in a particular city if you happen to have time. With others, travel doesn't dominate discussion. People say where they are going for a particular holiday. All of that said, travel seems pretty innocuous as a conversation topic....so I don't really get this. By contrast, my MIL and SIL spend most gatherings talking about the goings on in the lives of people I've never met. Or MIL tells me in depth details about local street construction and happenings in her small downtown. That is far more tedious.[/quote]
