I just wanted to vent a bit and see how others are handling this.
Last year, as an example, I flew over 140,000 miles just on United. There were a few other flights on China Eastern Airlines and others as well. On average, I was on a plane once every five days.
I was commenting to Will yesterday that for the last 2-3 years I have come home from Taipei the morning of Halloween. It just feels strange.
For those outside of the US, there are very few places we can travel to due to COVID restrictions.
For this year, I was going to ramp up travel. I was even planning to go to all seven continents this year which is a big reason I did New Zealand for a weekend in January.
Now I am stuck at home with relatively few places I can go. I have flown twice in the US this year, the furthest was on a flight to Big Sky/ Bozeman MT. Those places are fun, and there are certainly differences between folks in different parts of the US. It still lacks a lot of the cultural perspective one gets from going outside the country.
Let us hope we can get back to going places soon.
