Traveling might also mean vacationing to some however for myself traveling is less about vacationing and more so about exploring and experiencing different cultures, customs and food and getting outside of my comfort zone.  Some trips have provided me with both a vacation and a travel experience others have been definitely one or the other. 

As of February 2024 I have visited 51 countries some of which I have explored several times and more thoroughly than others and there are so many countries I have yet to see but also so many more that I want to experience again.
