35 Times Traveling Wasn't Worth It

Nathan Johnson Published 06/04/2021

Travel. See the world. Chase new experiences and discover adventures. If you don't take the leap and throw yourself into the entropic soup of existence, you'll never know the scent of lemur urine as it permeates through the fibers of your cap. Or the subtle, salty taste of skin fakes as the calloused feet of the passenger behind you peppers your rubbery, economy-class meal. Never will you sip the ambrosia that accompanies a world-class view of a brick wall, so close to your hotel room's window you could reach out, touch it, and feel the stone's cold and pitiless face against your skin.

Indeed, there are so many reasons to travel. So few to stay at home, suffocated by familiarity. Be like these people -- go on escapades! Grow disappointed! Be trampled on by untouchable airline airline carriers!

And, most importantly, grow.
