The end of the year is rapidly approaching and that means it is time for the 2025 Travel Year in Review! I have one more flight remaining for 2025 but, since it’s on New Years Eve, I’m gonna go ahead and count it for now.

While this wasn’t my busiest travel year ever, it was certainly the most rewarding. Early in the year I took my paternity leave as Mrs. WS93 returned to work after the birth of WS93 Jr. We took the opportunity to do plenty of traveling, including my first trip to Asia with Mrs. WS93, WS93 Jr., and her family to Kazakhstan to visit family.

The Asia theme continued in July when we headed to Japan with some of our Denver based travel friends to celebrate my birthday. All in all, it was an amazing year of travel and I’m already looking forward to 2026!

Looking forward to seeing everyone’s 2025 stats as we head into 2026!
