You’ve doubtless heard the phrase, “Not all who wander are lost.”
This week, Katy and Tiffany theorize that many who wander are, indeed, lost. Why is it that so many expats come from troubled homes or have difficult pasts? While we haven’t made a scientific study, in our time living abroad, we’ve noticed that expats and travel addicts seem to boast a much higher than average amount of family dysfunction and general malaise than the those who spend their lives close to home.
In this week’s episode, your intrepid hosts discuss whether this is simply a coincidence or if suffering and dissatisfaction push people out into the world. Also, Tiffany muses on the times she has used travel as an excuse to avoid unpleasant realities at home. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself if you’re traveling TO somewhere, or simply to leave somewhere behind?
