So.. one of my male friends is leaving in a few days. To go to Russia, for a year? Then he is going to live in Japan.

Another just told me yesterday that he is leaving to go to London in six months.. and then travel around europe indefinately.

One close male friend I no longer speak with, also seemed to up and leave a lot.. as in.. 20hr plane rides and different countries.


So, is there really that much more out there, for a guy?


I get the feeling to do this kind of thing every so often too.. but, to be honest, I think it's probably all the same type of shit, just in another language, a little less money, a little more money. With the exception of natural beautiful places. All of mans creations though.. really, it can't be that much more fulfilling. .. I dont know for sure though.

# 1 I've never had a huge deep and meaningful discussion with, but there was a huge breakup a few years ago. I'm fairly sure he hasn't totally recovered from.

# 2 Openly admits feeling as though this will help him get the girl of his dreams coming into his life. (though #2 also openly admits that I am pretty much the girl of his dreams so Im not sure if he counts in this )

# 3 suffered massive beakup heartache before being a traveller, too. I've no idea of current status.



They're all 25 - 30..(I just freaked myself out with that age span becuase I am now included) is this some kind of right of passage?

hmmph.
