Travel is cool, and it might very well be a culturing experience for some, but I'm slightly turned by folks not getting why everyone doesn't do it. Pointing out that it can be done with some sacrifice is a neutral point in and of itself, but to apply provisos along the way that judge others for not making these sacrifices blows me away. The reasons given so far for not traveling (by those that have traveled), aside from money, are presumptious and unnecessarily negative in connotation.
I just realized I started to write this like I would write a report for a client, so I'm going to finish by saying "I puked on a girl in a bar in Kiev, like top to bottom, even on her shoes. It was so bad."
I have a reputation to uphold, kids.

Right. I mean some people also go to cheaper state schools that don't offer great educations and spend the money on travel, or they have cars instead, or live in cheaper areas, etc.. But there are many, probably the majority of Americans given average income, who don't have that choice to even make.
And did you have sex with that girl or no? Because the story is funnier if you have sex and then throw up on her.
