People who have never travelled

    There is something innately wrong with people who have never travelled or who have no desire to do so. You know the type: born and raised in Ballygobackwards, maybe spent a few years living in the "Big Smoke" for college, only to return to their little village and marry the girl up the road. Their inbred children will usually continue the cycle leading to whole villages having the same surname. These are usually the same types who proclaim that Ireland is the best country in the world. Idiots. Travel and then make that judgement.

    So far, I have experienced living in South America, North America and Asia, each for months at a time. I have also visited over 30 European cities, mainly on week long holidays. I could write a book on my adventures and may well do so one day. The people I've met, the sights I've seen... I'm getting nostalgic just reminiscing about it.

    Your annual piss-up in Santa Ponsa with the lads is not travelling by the way. I find that people who haven't travelled are also extremely socially awkward, usually still living with the mother too. Anyway, what do you think?

    I think they're the smart ones, saving their money instead of blowing it on 30 holidays, and are probably much better off.

    Settled Travellers.

    There is so much wrong with this, that I don't even know where to begin.

    My generalisation scanner has just exploded.

    OP, your post is just dripping in smugness

    And being smug is common in a lot of people who return from their travels

    I think your attitude to people who have never travelled is ignorant tbh.
    Maybe they can't afford it, maybe they have panic attacks over the thoughts of it or maybe they actually have no desire to travel & are quite happy living their lives as they see fit.

    Stop being so judgemental & using it as an opportunity to blow about all the places you have been.

    A month's ban wasn't long enough so we'll go three.
