Hard to phrase this, but bear with me.

Living in the US, and occasionally I think about what other countries I would travel to if I had the money and ambition to do so.

Realistically though, I have a hard time justifying leaving the US. Sure, I have some interest in European history and places of interest, but other than that I can find all sorts of adventure here. If I wanted to explore different cultures and civilizations, they're already here. If I want a change of scenery or terrain, I can find what I'm looking for. If I want to be left the hell alone, I can make it happen (though I may go through hell to do so).

Damn near inifinite possibilities, and I don't even need a passport.

Why leave?

Right. But aside from historical sites in Europe, I wouldn't care to visit Europe at all I don't think. And it seems like much of Europe's glory is lost to nigger-ocracy anyway (America too, but I'm already here).

Keep in mind that you and I don't own the mean of international travel. If you leave the US there i no guarantee you can get back.

Just one more reason to remain 😂

Yea, it's scary to leave home. You might not make it back.

OK. If you set aside history, I see your point. My wife and I used to alternate every year between a vacation abroad and a vacation here in the States. For the past three years (partially due to Covid lock-downs) we've been staying here. I think this tear we might be doing another road trip out west. There is so much beauty to see in the US it's impossible to see it all.

I think I've only been to and through 25 states in my lifetime. And I still would rather keep revisiting western South Dakota. Paradise.

...western South Dakota. Paradise.

I could easily see myself living there if the wife didn't enjoy the beach so much.
