traveling has been a passion for me... i'm typing this from Delhi, India, a week ago I was writing from Manila, Philippines.
While it seems like just a week or two here or there, theres so much more if you let it be passionate. While I don't do the planned minutae of a trip to see all the sights I can (it's been hard for me to slowly let go of that) I've been really relishing the differences and similarities of life from place to place.
I like to see how the real people live here, not the well to do, not the tourist areas, but the places where the heart of the people are. So I immerse myself in the newspapers, local TV (which is getting harder and harder since America exports so many shows) and talks with as many locals as I can muster.
and yeah the kids get in the way of travel more than the money... hence we still don't and probably won't have kids.
good on you planting the seed for yoga. you may find that it's not for you.. and you may find that it totally is for you... but you won't know until you try.
as for me, when I get back to NYC we're taking Icelandic classes. I should be able to speak to my friends in Icelandic the next time were there in 2007 for our 5 year anniversary.
