I’m a traveler at heart. I love being home but I love going to new places and seeing history and the world. Had grand plans to go back to Europe one day, take more cruises, etc.
Covid has killed all of that off in me. And I had to let it go. It’s been like a death. Reimagining life where I can’t go places because I refuse to participate in this system they are building. Freedom at the point of a needle and the muzzling of a mask. The luster and charm of ancient cities loses so much when you have to flash passports and papers, anyway.
So I’m making new dreams. I refuse to fly until the mask shit is over. Flying sucked pre-pandemic…
I don’t know if anyone else out there feels heartbroken like me.
Do you have hope this will change? That more and more people will wake up and push back? Do you still believe NCSWIC? This is the Great Reset. I believe Trump helped rush this along and foiled their lengthier plans. I’m just blurry on the future.
Just wondering if anyone else out there feels the way I do.
My last international flight was coming back from Afghanistan 6 years ago. If I can't carry a gun with me, I ain't going there. So, it's staying in my truck and the South for the foreseeable future. Maybe one day, I'll get back to Costa Rica. I'd like to go to Turkey and Vietnam too. But for now, I'm fine with everything the good ole US of A has to offer.
I feel you. I’m in the south as well and grateful for it. There’s are lot to discover all around us.
Interestingly Costa Rica was one of the last places I traveled pre-shutdown. It was beautiful.
It's a beautiful country. I want to take my eco-wife there some day. Erase memories of going with my ex (shudder).
Haha yes that’s a must-do then! Make new memories to blot out the old. I get it.
We could get a sailboat and sail away no mask no vaxx. ;)
I like it :)
You could not fathom to imagine how much you would love it.
I, too, like to travel. However, there is NO PLACE ON EARTH I need to be if it requires me to participate in their stupid games. I will not comply simply to satisfy a desire for some “fun”. I have friends who have taken the vax simply for ease of vacationing.
This too shall pass. I can wait.
yes I feel your frustration...personally I have a wonderful girl actually she is in China...We will be married eventually but now with all this hoopla I cannot even see her...travel is impossible now....She is frustrated and so am I. We will get through it but it is tough...we will never give up the love we found. all these governments and commies can go suck a big one.......
I’m so sorry fren. Being separated from your love is much worse than losing out of traveling for leisure. I pray and hope it works out and y’all can be together soon.
well we have chat apps email and phones, not quite the same but we will survive thanks...if she wasnt worth it i would have bailed a long time ago, lol. As we tell each other I love you not your government lol....
So true!!
besides that sexting is fun sometimes lol
“Lowered expectations” 😂😂😂
All will be right in the end. :)
Remember Dorothy.....there's no place like home. Sans the ruby slippers, you could get an ol rand map, unfold it and put next to your calendar. Draw a radius and set your mission to check out your glorious homeland.
I can tell you remain a Warrior. Never let them take your Hope and Precious Spirit of Adventure. WWG1WGA 🇱🇷 🇱🇷 🇱🇷
I do believe things will revert to normal, eventually. May take a year or two more for things to play out, but all will come out in the light, people will realize they were duped and swear to never be duped again. That's my hope and that's my belief.
I feel your pain. We have family in Italy. My ex husband is buried there. Feel like my kids will never get to visit his tomb again or their family.
Just stinks. I’m sorry. I’m hoping for better days ahead. And if anything, these countries losing out on tourism $$ will mean something.
It's a shame our 2nd amendment can't truly save the world. I'm truly hoping my inlaws do not go out and get another booster. But they got the 1st ones because they were required. My dummy mother in law fell as well. Broke her pelvis and femur. I'm terrified that she is going to be more susceptible to blood clots now.
I've never left the continental United States. Didn't fly til I was in my 30s. Everything "going on" now sealed the deal. Will not give my money to foreign countries directly
I'm with you, friend. I've travelled all over the world but still have that burning desire to visit more places. But right now...that won't happen because like you, i refuse to comply with their tyranical orders. Take heart...the day will come when we will fly once again to far off, exciting places.
I don't like feeling like I can't just up and travel anywhere like earlier in life, however, I do feel like there is much to appreciate and explore right around me that I could easily miss if I had other opportunities. I liken it to not having the internet and good book reading. Because we have easy access to ever changing information right at our fingertips, we often miss the good deep reading found in books.
Good point and optimistic. Thank you. It helps starting to appreciate what’s around you and not always searching for something “beyond”.
Biggest regret was not visiting Paris before it was trashed. International travel is not appealing anymore since COVID. Too many unknowns. Domestically, I can drive anywhere. Flying is too scary now with all the crazies on board with you. All very sad.
I am also a traveler at heart, and have traveled for both pleasure and business for many years - domestically as well as internationally.
Under the current circumstances, I have no desire to go anywhere, but I’m not frustrated about it because I remain very optimistic that, on the other side of all this, travel will become better than ever.
Same but I will not fly with a mask.
When people take the words "Give me liberty or give me death" to heart and mean it.
This will ALL end.
Travel domestically. A campervan can take you almost anywhere. No mask, no tests, no shots.
