Travel is a meme for NPCs to show how cultured they are in the most bland "I spent money to get pictures I can brag about on my Only Fans page" way and brag about the "experiences" they have.
Now living in multiple countries, that's actual living experience.

People always romanticize places they've never been before. Here's how the typical Chad amerifat travels to europe:
>Go to European country
>Eat the food. Oh my god, such good food!
>Get wasted every day. Dude, this wine is SOO cheap yet SOO good!
>See the sights. Take an annoying amount of pictures with your smartphone, thereby pissing off every non-Amerifat there.
> Fall in love with random European girl. Fuck her a few times while you're there.
>Promise her that you'll write to her or call her.
>You'll come back from vacay and talk to her for like a month, then you will ghost each other. But the memories will remain in your mind.
Not saying that it isn't worth it, but it's just a big hassle for something that doesn't last.

I'm from Europe (UK) and I have to disagree with your India comment. They may not have had a McD's on every corner, but the sub-continent is steeped in culture. I spent months working in Mumbai (which is not so good) but I had the chance to visit other parts of India, and intend to return on my own time and explore that vast continent.

Depends completely on how you travel. My parents traveled a lot as newlyweds when my dad was in the AF, so I grew up with an appreciation for visiting new places and stepping outside my comfort zone. I've done a considerable amount of traveling as an adult by myself and had some pretty amazing experiences. That being said, I always had a budget in mind and stuck to it.

The problem with traveling these days amongst millennials and zoomers (mostly women), is that they put it all on their credit card and go into debt to visit all the meme destinations their friends and insta thots post pictures of online. It's always the same shit like yacht week in Croatia or visiting the same cliche tourist destinations like Paris, London, Ireland, Peru, Thailand, etc. They never do any real research on the place they visit or consider going to the Eastern block, poorer South American or Asian countries, or Canada, where there's an endless amount of attractions and activities you can do at a fraction of the cost.

If you ever can visit and have the cash, think about taking the train. It's amazing but very expensive. I got really lucky and got an unlimited 2month pass for $150 bucks during a promo for Canada's 150th anniversary and it was an amazing experience.
