My travels are just a tad different. You see, I'm a 75 year old man who has been divorced for almost 24 years now. Since `1986' I've travelled over 300,000 miles through the skyway's, railways, and hyways, meeting hundreds of thousands in all those years. Ironically I have kept a record of every plane, rail, and bus ticket I ever purchased (and all my passports, too).
In fact I have covered every state, including Alaska, and Hawwiaa, too, and every inch of Canada, multiply times, since my divorce, way back when.
Here's the best part! I'm still wondering what I'm going to do, when I grow up? (Maybe get a job, eh.)
Blessings.
Happy Happy No middle name. :)
