Some people love to travel. Other people just can’t get enough of it. Do you love to travel? Do you love to travel more than the next guy? Do you eat, sleep, and breathe travel? Are you a nomad who is always on the road? Are you a perpetual planner who always is always planning your next vacation? Are you a endless dreamer who is always dreaming about your next destination? Do you have a bucket list full of exotic locations, places you’ve always wanted to visit, and adventures you can’t wait to experience? Have you had to add pages to your passport multiple times because you’ve run out of space for more passport stamps? Does all your money go towards your next trip?
