Subject: Are upper middle class family gatherings now just luxury travel pissing contests?

Suddenly, everyone thinks they're Anthony Bourdain and wants to brag about passport stamps. So and so to Japan, uncle so and so just went on a pheasant hunting or fly fishing trip, Utah and Colorado ski trips, Hawaii, Caribbean, Mexico, Italy, Spain, golfing in Ireland, Scotch sipping in Scotland, hiking in some SE Asian country, F1 racing in Brazil, cousin so and so is studying abroad in Australia, blah blah blah. It's dizzying.
It didn't always used to be this way, did it?
Travel opens one’s mind OP
No worries we will be North Korea soon no travel allowed

Single and married women have been brainwashed into thinking blowing money traveling & the dovetailing travel hobbies unlocks a personality and higher status. It doesn’t. Men are not fueling this trend.
“- I'm funny and not boring and have travelled plenty. Some people call me smart.
- run, snowboard, mountain bike blah blah”
