Even though I enjoy traveling I would say it is not for everyone. It gets romanticized online because it's easy to share great pictures. The reality is that loads of effort goes into those great pictures.

My girlfriend put a serious effort into organizing the trip (we traveled together) and I don't think I would/could have done it without her. I went to lots of different countries including India, New Zealand, Cambodia, South Africa, Namibia, Bosnia, Turkey, Brazil, Peru, Argentina, Bolivia. Some places I stayed for weeks, others just days. Some places we did group tours (https://www.gadventures.com and other similar companies) and other places we stayed in hotels/hostels/camped. You can learn about history and culture and you can enjoy yourself drinking, eating and meeting people. Each place is different.
