I kind of like to travel. I've traveled to maybe a dozen countries (and more than that states) in my life, and it's fun. The thing that bothers me, though, is people who think it's more than just a fun activity, that it's super meaningful, that it expands your horizons, that it helps you understand other cultures, and makes you a more interesting person.

I don't think you really get any of that. In contrast I've lived, as in picked up my life, moved my things, etc, in different countries (and states) and I feel like that actually has affected me. Just one or two weeks has never been enough for me to settle in, to make life long meaningful connections and friends, and to truly live in a culture.
