It's begun.
Jumping from one country to the next, never much longer than a week at a time. Hardly ever getting enough time to grow accustomed to the surroundings before the next travel day is upon us. Home for one week, submersed in a completely different culture the next. Do we ever really have a final destination? Because soon it will feel as though it's just one 5 month long travel day. Every country we play is a layover before we head to out next stop.
If we had a single flight itinerary it would look something like this:
Flight: ------ Departs: ------------- Arrives: --------------- Meal: ------------- Date: -------- Flight Time:
IA 111 ----- Home ----------------- Guatemala City ------- I ----------------- April --------- Too Long
MB 222 ---- Guatemala City --- Boca Chica -------- Really ------------ | --------- Too Long
EI 333 ------ Boca Chica --------- Los Angeles ------- Hope ------------- | ---------- Too Long
NG 112 ---- Los Angeles -------- Vancouver ------------ So ------------- | ---------- Too Long
SO 223 ---- Vancouver ----------- Shanghai --------------- I ---------------- | ---------- Too Long
CR 331 ---- Shanghai ------------- Prague --------------- Hate ------------- | ---------- Too Long
EA 122 ----- Prague --------------- Beijing ------------------ It ---------------- | ---------- Too Long

VE 311 ----- Rome ---------------- Stavanger --------------- I ----------------- | ---------- Too Long
WI 132 ----- Stavanger ----------- Gstaad ---------------- Have ------------ | ---------- Too Long
TH 321 ----- Gstaad -------------- Moscow ----------------- To --------------- | ---------- Too Long
ES 213 ----- Moscow ------------ Quebec City -------- Starve ------------ | ---------- Too Long
EF 121 ----- Quebec City ------- Stare Jablonki ------- On -------------- | ---------- Too Long
LI 232 ------ Stare Jablonki ------ Klagenfurt ---------- Flights ----------- | ---------- Too Long
GH 313 ---- Klagenfurt ----------- Aland --------------------- I ---------------- | ---------- Too Long
TN 131 ----- Aland ----------------- Toronto ---------------- Pray ------------- | ---------- Too Long
AM 212 ---- Toronto -------------- Puerto Vallarta ------- For -------------- | ---------- Too Long
ES 323 ----- Puerto Vallarta --- Home ------------------- Food ------------ October ------ Too Long
First person to find the hidden message in that itinerary will get an all expenses payed high five.
As you can see, every flight is too long, and I'm always looking forward to my next meal. When people tell me they're so jealous i get to travel all the time, it makes me wonder. Since every destination just leads to the next, one after the other, am I really getting to experience any of them? Or is it just one really long travel schedule in which I end up back where I started?

PS. I really hope everyone sees this on a big enough screen, because it was really a hassle to make the itinerary look just right.
