Almost Time to Travel

I leave for Rome on Friday! It's incredibly surreal.

Movement Class trip to France!

I never thought I would be at a point in my life where I would be doing something like visiting Rome. I didn't even get on a place until college! I don't think I had even left the Eastern Time Zone until then.

I didn't fly until post 9/11. To me, you have always had to have less than 3.4 ounces of liquids in a plastic bag, take off your shoes, and not be able to go with someone to their gate if you aren't flying with them. So...I don't really have good old days of aviation.

Not traveling definitely doesn't seem like it fits with who I am now. I'm constantly traveling and traveling alone a lot of the time. Less than a month after our Rome trip, we are going to NYC to see Baroness play. After that? I might be going to Seattle.

When I'm debating if I should travel or go somewhere or not, I think about my dad. How I'm sure that he thought there would be time to travel or staycation (side note: for some reason, I imagine him hating the word "staycation").

Sometimes there isn't.

Any opportunity to travel, I take it. I've been to Hawaii, San Diego, Seattle, NYC, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Chicago, Virginia, and more. I will continue to travel as often as I can for as long as it is an option.

Because one day, it won't be.
