But seriously. The one thing that drives me, is that I want to hike the American Discovery Trail one day. I have hosted many hikers on this trail, living vicariously through their adventures. One day I want to have that adventure also, but I cannot at the moment due to a number of personal reasons. If it takes me another 30 years before I can do it, then so be it. It never stopped Grey Beard
It isn’t quite the same thing, but in a previous life, I used to couchsurf and host couchsurfers. Just amazing meeting people from diverse cultures and having profound moments of connection despite our cultural differences
I hope you keep this dream alive xP

Every traveler that I have hosted and told me the same thing when I ask the best part of their trips, and they generally say the people they meet. The news and social media makes it look like we are all divided and against each other, but honestly humans are social creatures and enjoy that sociability.
