"You lean from the window, your last pipe reeking whitely into the darkness, your body full of delicious pains, your mind enthroned in the seventh circle of content; when suddenly the mood changes, the weather-cock goes about, and you ask yourself one question more: whether, for the interval, you have been the wisest philosopher or the most egregious of donkeys? Human experience is not yet able to reply; but at least you have had a fine moment, and looked down upon all the kingdoms of the earth. And whether it was wise or foolish, to-morrow's travel will carry you, body and mind, into some different parish of the infinite."

a little sad... how will you learn another point of view?

How big is your island?
- chossy0
I think learning another point of view is fairly straightforward and it would probably take a little longer than two weeks holiday. I'm just not really into holidaying and travel much.... if I take time off work it is usually because I need to due to something I am having to organise.

travel and holiday are two different things.
- chossy0
Indeed paraselene, sometimes I think about going to somewhere, then when I go to book it I change my mind and don't bother. Would it make me a different person if I saw more of the world?... No I doubt it.

have you ever been overseas?

i think it's up to the individual. if you don't want to go abroad then don't. there's plenty enough to see and do in this fine sceptred isle of ours.
the people that really pee me off are thems that goes abroad just for "some sun" (or because they feel they ought to - well, everyone else does) and have no interest in the place they are going. they are nothing more than pollution - in all senses of the word.
if you're curious about the world we live in, then travel. if you're not, then don't. either way it's fine.
