Today my partner and I had breakfast at a local coffee shop here in Staten Island. When the skimpy avocado toast I ordered came out burnt I was disappointed. I decided it’s time to go to Spain.<\/p>\n
The avocado toast was a catalyst.<\/p>\n
If you’re generally content and then something like avocado toast turns out disappointing, generally you don’t care. Well, I don’t anyway. There are more pressing things to worry about in the world. But if you’re itching to travel like I already am, and you get skimpy burnt avocado toast, then it’s a trigger.<\/p>\n
The skimpy burnt avocado toast wasn\u2019t worth the price I paid. But it was more than that.<\/p>\n
There really is such a thing as a travel bug, or a travel itch\u2026 a desire to keep moving and keep exploring with a never-ending curiosity about the rest of the world.<\/p>\n
That’s how people like me think. And I know many people like me. We are in a constant state of wonder about the world. Not just to read about it, but to see it for ourselves. And one way or another we figure out how to get there. We don\u2019t just think about doing it. We do it.<\/p>\n
So when will you leave? I don’t know.<\/p>\n
What city will you go to? I don’t know.<\/p>\n
How long will you stay? I don’t know.<\/p>\n
Are you sure you are going? Yes.<\/p>\n
Ok, I will probably go in April. But it sounded better to say \u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d up there.\ud83d\ude0f<\/p>\n
So that\u2019s that.<\/p>\n
