First of all, kudos to your remission status! That's a big deal.

My husband and I started doing long-stay travel in 2021. We stay eight weeks in a specific part of a country/world (i.e., Central America, Europe), and we try to see as many parts of that country as possible on the weekend. For example, when we were in Central America, we spent 4 weeks in Costa Rica and 4 in Panama.

Like you, I find traveling to be a way to broaden your own mind, as well as others. When we were in Croatia, there were few Black people, and every time we interacted with a Croatian, it was like a little mini-cultural exchange. Anywho, I didn't mean to go on and on lol

Loved this essay!

Thank you! The mini-cultural exchange is so true and it is one of the most interesting aspects of travel.

I like your flair for writing, the easy style with which you weave words.

I was gonna read only a few lines, but I ended up reading everything!
