The itch

on 4/8/08, AFriendlyMonster posted:
I've been sedentary for a while now. My last trip abroad was last summer.

Although exploring the United States has been fun and I'm nowhere near done, I find myself once again with the itch to explore a completely unknown society and place.

How long does it take you before the itch settles in?

I joined the miitary because I get that itch. Luckily the first two years they sent me to two separate places but now I’ve been stationed in one palce for the past three years on an island where I can’t even go on road trips. So about a year and a half in I started to get the itch. Now I’m just stir crazy.

I live in a city (Pittsburgh) that has almost constant crummy weather. Once a year my family and I go on a big vacation, and every now and then I get the itch to go on a little vaca by myself. I think I always have the itch, especially in winter. In fact, the Itch happens to me so often I think I have Travel Fleas.

i think once you’ve got bitten by the travel bug…you’ve got the itch for life. i’ve been itching and scratching once i arrive back home from a trip.

i need a new environment to revel in, a new culture to explore, and interesting people to meet with amazing life stories EVERY single day. once i save up some money, i’m hoping i can make it to south africa

Mine is more of a constant drum!!! I love travel. I have not done a big trip since summer before last when I went to Europe for a month and a half. I have done little trips, New York, Cali, etc… but I cannot wait to head out to the unknown again. I am going to Europe this summer and will travel around for a while and then I plan on taking a year off after college and before Grad school to travel around the world and work. I think I will forever have an insatiable appetite for travel.

I truly don’t think the itch goes away! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Nothing can fill the void that is TRAVEL.
