August 24, 2004Lurking Around on Travel Sites
I've been back home for about three weeks now. It's like I never left- a scary thought. I have to look at my photos to remember it was all real. When I was in Sydney in February, I met up with Terry, a buddy I met in India. He has been on several one year journeys and said that right about this time (3-4 weeks after he got home) he started sneaking stealthily into travel agents. Likewise, I've been hovering around my world map and lurking on travel web sites, in particular: It's addictive. I need to get away for a while!! But I can't . I have a bit o' debt to pay off (not TOO much) and I am looking for a job out in Portland, but all I want to go is wander off to Prague or Spain for a mindless week of driving around on a Vespa. I have other big trips I want to do (New Zealand, Japan, Central Asia's "'stans") but they will have to wait. Right now I want easy, relaxing, and people who don't speak English as a primary language. Comments
