12 Reasons Not to Take a Round the World Trip

1. Riding to work every day is way better than riding a camel through the Sahara desert.

2. Spending your days with a tie around your neck in meetings is the right way to live, not spending it with the Maasai tribe in southern Kenya wearing a traditional blanket performing an ancient ceremonial dance.

4. Your coffee at home is way better than picking it fresh from the tree in Colombia.

5. It’s easy enough to get lost in the aisles of the grocery store, you don’t need to get lost exploring the ancient medinas of Fes.

12. When you travel and learn new languages sometimes you don’t get the sarcasm.
