I know this seems like a silly question. Maybe its even been posted before but I wasn't able to find it. So well.. why do y'all travel? I'm sure everyone here who has travelled has been asked this question before. It seems to be a conversation starter for people who are unfimiliar with this lifestyle. I was even asked this question this evening although its been rolling around in my head for a long time.
Well here goes...
I like to travel because of the freedom
I like the ability to say fuck this and walk away.
I like not giving a fuck about the kardashians and escaping the other silly social situations that ensnare people.
The feeling when falling asleep beat and tired knowing all I have to do the next day is put one foot in front of the other and make a few more miles up the road.
I like the feeling of walking into a strange town beat, haggard, and dirty with a smile on my face.
Being alone on a dark starry night.
I like the feeling of the rain beating down on me. A cool wind on a hot day. The smell of the plants, the water, the earth.
I like the wonder of the places I go and people I meet.
I like the feeling of knowing that anything can happen.
I like the smell and sound of the trains.
The feeling of knowing I'm going to be in another town far away the next day.
I like being on the fringe of society knowing that I am part of that something else.
The wisdom that it gives me and the things I learn.
I guess a lot of it also has to with not agreeing with many aspects of society and finding my own happiness and peace in the world.
