We're Old Enough To Know Better, But Too Young To Care

a trip by Vic Pollen
From: October 1st 2015
Until: October 1st 2016

We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us. Travel does tend to take you beyond your comfort zone but that's the whole point- there are things you won't see from the comfort of the couch, and things you won't do if you're wearing baggy sweatpants and slippers.

We just passed the 4 year anniversary of our non-stop worldwide travel and although we want to keep the magic going, we've decided that a change of pace is needed. Part 3 of the journey will be a road trip through both Canada and the U.S. Both countries have a lot to offer and there's an eccentricity just below the surface that should be fun.

As a wise man once said, "Every man dies. Not every man really lives."
