Wow, you really don't like travelling do you?

For what it's worth, I don't think your experience is universal. Fair enough, walking around all day does create some bodily discomfort, but personally I walk around in my home city a lot. So I'm pretty used to that and the discomfort is generally minor.

But in particular, you seem to not have a particularly good time with the food while travelling, which for me is often the best part of traveling while there, and the most memorable after the fact. In some ways, I travel to eat, and maybe that's a common alternative to your experience, to be fair, I think I'd like traveling far less if the food was generally bad.

I'm not fond of traveling either. For me to go somewhere, there has to be a friend (or friends) or family there to visit. I dislike going somewhere just to go, and have found that typically, it's not worth the experience. I travel to see people, not places or food.

I think that makes a lot of sense, both of my parents hate traveling. The point of my post was just to suggest that the parent's opinion wasn't universal, that some of us really do actually like traveling. There are obviously aspects of it that aren't great in the moment, cramming into a plane, jet lag. But generally those aspects are worth the rest of the experience.
