I like to travel.

I read, write, and listen to others’ travel stories.

My travel list includes numerous countries and cities I may never actually see in my lifetime.

But I can’t help it, I keep adding to my list.

Norway

Vietnam

Scotland

Peru

Colombia

Who has the money and vacation time for all of the places I need to go?

Not me.

Besides, I’m this (lifts forefinger and thumb, showing a small space of air) close to throwing my travel list out the window.

Well, not really, that would be littering.
