Why We Travel

A couple of months ago, we were having a chat about our world tour with one of our couch surfing hosts in Turin and when I mentioned we'd only been on the road for two months, he laughed and said “Wow, only two months?! But that's a lot already!” That's when it hit me. For the most of us occidental folks, we've never been on the road for two months because, well, we're way too comfy on our sofas scrolling through Facebook and Instagram being envious of all those people who are doing something meaningful with their life.
