I never cared about traveling abroad. We went to Ireland in July and had a good time.

Now we are in Vienna, Austria for about a week.

Yeah it's fun but imo still not worth the cost, time away from home and hassle of traveling. Oh well, she will bear great children and we will raise them right, so this is worth keeping her happy.

Boohoo me lol

I feel the same way in general, traveling for the sake of travel is way over rated. But as I get older and bored with what is near by I appreciate it more. Everything gets stagnant. Novelty becomes more valuable. You begin to notice differences that are subtle or seem meaningless when you are younger.

I remember having the same feeling about people watching sports. None of it was the very least impressive to me. Even though the players were doing things I couldn't in my head they were just adults so obviously they could do those things. It was hardly something worth watching. But as an adult I notice that most adults, no matter how much they practice, can't do those things. I can now see the discrepancy between the skilled and the talented. It makes watching the sport interesting.

Since you are traveling anyway you might as well make the best of it. Make an effort to find the hidden gems. Stick your nose where it doesn't belong. Be adventurous. Get in trouble. You won't see those people again. Your wife is looking for an adventure. Give her more than she is ready for. Pull her out of her comfort zone. Get your money's worth.
