I am\u00a0a descendant of a nomad nation \u2014 I got the travel bug at a very young age. \u201cThere are no foreign lands, it is the traveler who is foreign\u201d is one of my favorite quotes. There is something mesmerizing about stepping on a land you never visited before \u2013 being foreign in a foreign country, meeting people and learning their culture and traditions. \u00a0First arriving in India comes to mind:\n\nNo matter what journey I take, whether it\u2019s backpacking somewhere in Africa or a lazy vacation on a Pacific isle, it never looks or feels the same.\n\nThis is also the story of my 3 closest travel buddies (Hugh, Keith &amp; Will) and all the tag-alongs and personalities we have encountered\u00a0on our adventures. My travel buddies could have created this narrative but they have decided to use Facebook (which is just a passing fad) or other ways of recording their lives. We have tried the traditional blog method here \u2013&gt; my TravelBlog \u2014 but it doesn\u2019t accommodate all those adventures with the characters (incl. family members) with whom we have crossed paths.\n<blockquote>This is our narrative in pictures.<\/blockquote>\n<h1>Heading 1<\/h1>\n<h2>Heading 2<\/h2>\n<h3>Heading 3<\/h3>\n<h4>Heading 4<\/h4>\n<h5>Heading 5<\/h5>\n<h6>Heading 6<\/h6>\nBucket List Ideas \u2013 Travel Meets Happy <!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v2.3.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ --> <!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->\/\/ 3e3):(d.fillText(String.fromCharCode(55357,56835),0,0),0!==d.getImageData(16,16,1,1).data[0])):!1}function e(a){var c=b.createElement(\u201cscript\u201d);c.src=a,c.type=\u201dtext\/javascript\u201d,b.getElementsByTagName(\u201chead\u201d)[0].appendChild(c)}var f,g;c.supports={simple:d(\u201csimple\u201d),flag:d(\u201cflag\u201d)},c.DOMReady=!1,c.readyCallback=function(){c.DOMReady=!0},c.supports.simple&amp;&amp;c.supports.flag||(g=function(){c.readyCallback()},b.addEventListener?(b.addEventListener(\u201cDOMContentLoaded\u201d,g,!1),a.addEventListener(\u201cload\u201d,g,!1)):(a.attachEvent(\u201conload\u201d,g),b.attachEvent(\u201conreadystatechange\u201d,function(){\u201ccomplete\u201d===b.readyState&amp;&amp;c.readyCallback()})),f=c.source||{},f.concatemoji?e(f.concatemoji):f.wpemoji&amp;&amp;f.twemoji&amp;&amp;(e(f.twemoji),e(f.wpemoji)))}(window,document,window._wpemojiSettings);<br>\n\/\/ ]]&gt;<!-- [if lt IE 9]&gt;-->\n\n\n<div id=\"page\" class=\"hfeed site\">\n<div id=\"content\" class=\"site-content container\">\n<div id=\"primary\" class=\"content-area\">\n<article id=\"post-332\" class=\"post-332 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-about-me\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\nIt\u2019s difficult having a bucket list that is continuously growing.
