I guess some people really enjoy hanging out with their parents instead of having 10 days of picking up girls, drinking, partying and having fun. If that's your choice, all the more to you. Just remember that you're only young once and the world isn't going anywhere. I personally wouldn't trade the fun times I had for any travel. Those college years are the most fun years of your life and you make bonds with friends that you will never again have the chance to make.

One thing you should remember though, is that people who 'feel blessed' really should be doing what they can for others. Being a 1A traveller is a very elitist thing in a world where many people live in fear and go hungry most nights. Do you want to really feel blessed? Do something nice for others. Having rich parents and grandparents means that you're spoiled and priviledged. Using that priviledge to make a difference in the world is being blessed.
