Traveling into the Unknown

It's so exciting, booking hotels and buses and trains and boats and stuff in a place you've never been to.

It's amazing how it slips your mind when it doesn't happen often. Or at least as often as you'd want.

And you start to panic a bit – in a good way, but still.

Will it all work out?
What's the hotel going to look like?
Are we going to get lost in this gigantic city?

And then you get tingles because you're going someplace really amazing, mysterious and unfamiliar, and even a bit dangerous.

You don't tell that to your mother, of course...
