@corlin I'm in much the same boat except I can't even dream of world travel because a weekend stay in a hotel and the gas to get to it is nearly prohibitive for me, let alone whatever event might have drawn me there. (The events are always cheaper than the combined hotel/gas costs, and I bring my own food after requesting a room with a refrigerator and microwave.)
@corlin That must've been neat. My mom's cousin did that in Germany and loved it.

Oh to be in my late 20's again.
Jump on a standby flight to Europe for less than 2 days pay. Buy a rail pass for about the same, stay in hostels, eat street food. I am very glad I got to do that, and I know no one can do that now. Kinda makes me sad.
