How Travel Changed How We Think About Death (Random Generator)

 So the random topic generator made the question "How travel changed how we think about death" and honestly its a simple question while being a fairly deep question that requires you to kind of think back and appreciate everything.

To start off, I used to really not traveling as a kid as well as didn't even like traveling to Greece, I wanted to stay in my house and quite honestly do nothing. That changed very quickly. I traveled alone the winter of 2024 for the first time completely alone, meeting with friends in Greece, and this trip changed everything. I then only want to travel with friends because it so stressless, whereas with parents, it's always a rush and just a stressful environment which goes against obvious vacation rules. 

That being said, I've adapted a "Screw it" mindset, I'm living on this Earth only 1 time, I'm 21 only one time, if I can do it, I'm going to do it and pray God takes care of the rest. Through travel I've learned that you have to appreciate every moment because you don't know when your last will be, travel wherever you can, go somewhere new, go somewhere that brings you peace, who cares for the repercussions. It's best to ask for forgiveness rather than permission in this sense.

Emirates always does a fantastic job with the flights and the organization of their flights, which makes the actual travel aspect always smooth and effortless. Many people ask me, why do you always go back to Greece and don't travel to other places? I simply respond to them with, "There's simply no better place than Greece". Winter time it's best to stay near Athens as that's where everything happens, I stayed in a city called Glyfada which is a 10 minute from from the center of Athens, and of course summer time is when you can island hop to Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, or something more lowkey like Kefalonia but even in the summer, no...
