When I was in my 20’s I loved to travel and I tried to vacation as much as I could. My sixth-grade teacher had lived very frugally and spent all summer in Europe. That sounded like a pretty exciting life to me.
As I got older, I traveled less, but I still thought of myself as a globe-trotter that had seen the world.
However, yesterday I came across an old map. I was amazed by all the flags lining the map, so I counted the countries. That’s when I realized I had only been to about 5% of the countries… and I had only seen a few regions of each of those countries. The world is a very big place!
It’s interesting how your perception changes as you get older.
