Valentine’s Day is this week, and love is in the air.
So, I want to know dear reader – when did you fall in love with travel?
If you’re reading this, I already know you love hopping on planes to see the world, hitting the road for a long car ride, or maybe cruises are your favorite.
But when did it all begin?
Were you blessed to have a passport and see new countries and cultures as a child? Did the family road trip spark your wanderlust?
Or did it come later in life, perhaps on a getaway with friends or even on your honeymoon?
For me, my love of travel started with the family trips from Atlanta down to Orlando. Those long drives kicked in a love of road trips I cherish to this day, and it’s something I hope to pass on to my kids someday.
However, it wasn’t until my honeymoon in Greece that the love of travel truly began on a global scale. I remember applying for my passport with glee and anticipation and wondering why I hadn’t done this yet.
I owe it all to my wife. She was one of the blessed to fly on planes and see different parts of the world during her young childhood. I wanted to go to Hawaii for our honeymoon because I had never been and always wanted to go. She was determined to get me a passport though, and I’m forever grateful she did.
So, when and where did you fall in love with travel? What was the trip that did it for you?
