10 Times Tourists Completely Ruined Priceless History
There’s something magnetic about ancient architecture and historic artifacts. Whether it’s a crumbling amphitheater, a sacred temple high in the mountains, or a centuries-old painting in a quiet chapel, we’re drawn to these places. Maybe it’s the mystery. Maybe it’s the legends. Maybe it’s the simple realization that these structures have survived hundreds, sometimes thousands of years.

The Genius Idea of Stopovers in Warsaw
Normally I aim to spend anywhere from two to three hours between connecting flights at international airports before moving on promptly to my final destination. In the adventure my wife and I undertook, we had a stopover in Warsaw of a whopping seven-and-a-half hours **during the day**. There is no way any airport is so good to spend that much time there during the day, so we were definitely going to see the city. But was it worth it? Could we see something and get back to our connecting flight without being frazzled?

Vacations Seem Impossible
It's been a year and I haven't had my own car. I know lots of people don't have a car and that should be no big deal, but I'm just not the same without my own car. I accepted that I couldn't afford it anymore. I'm old, on a fixed income, and I just don't have the spending money like I did way back when. Plus, I've never known anything about fixing cars, and they all break down at some point. It was driving me insane - literally. I would get so depressed. Though I am happier that I'm not spending a fortune on a car, I haven't gone anywhere in a year. Nowhere. The most exciting trip I've been on in a year is to the local Walmart. That's pretty pathetic to me, especially when I know that I suffer from Wanderlust. Oh yeah, I got bit by the Wanderlust bug big time back in 2018. I've always loved traveling, but when I got into Road Tripping, I fell in love with travel even more.
