后悔备忘录-对旅行(2)

后悔备忘录-多旅行

 

Life is filled with regrets.

 

Traveling more

多旅行

I regret not travelling more, and so does nearly everyone that I have asked.

 

Before kids, and mortgages¹ and marriages, when ourcommitments and expenses were lower, the opportunities for travel were much greater, but for some reason many of us thought we'd always have time for travel later.

 

We dreamed of visiting the pyramids of Egypt,surfing off the Hawaiian coast, dining at a Parisian café, drinking espresso in Rome, trekking² through the rainforest, and so much more.

 

Sadly, many of us never made these journeys and the opportunity passed us by.
