It's an incurable addiction The more you do it the more you want. My children took a world map added pictures of the many places we've been together and framed it for a special birthday. It's hanging in my kitchen and not a day goes by that I don't look at the map of the world and enjoy memories or start to plan a new adventure. Why do we do it. Because its there and travel is something you pay for that makes you richer.
