There are travelers and then there is the one and only Traveller. I'm more of a wanderer.
I traveled cheaply when I was younger. Mrs. Chipshot rolls her eyes when I speak of youth hostels and sleeping on friends' couches. Those were different days.
No idea when I'll see Odysseus, and I don't own any rental properties. I enjoyed Shakespeare in the Park during my New York City (which I just read is the worst city in which to start a career) era.
A Midsummer Night's Dream at London's Globe Theater was a change of pace from tennis. Pro tip: splurge and pony up for the seat cushions (no, we did not opt for the mosh pit).
You should talk, I intend to leave you my name in my will! All things considered, you should take the name from me by right of possession right now!
You are the traveler not me.
Be that as it may, there are distinct benefits traveling on a cheap pocketbook.
I have fond memories of staying in the University of Vienna Student dorms; the military barracks in Manila; a vacant professor’s flat for me when I was thinking and trying to teach in Moscow and St Petersburg; and, of course, most best.ests the corporate condo lent to me on my many trips to Rio de Janeiro.
Now that I think about it, the gift to me of a small place in the New Territories near Hong Kong was equally fabulous even though I could speak not a word of Chinese among the thousand of other tenants in this huge ten story building. From hostels in Spain, fleeing from Barcelona, here and there, having to buy food at Supermarkets because I can’t afford restaurants has been a boon of sorts to me...I eat ham sandwiches with baguettes in some distant road pull off...
I shrug my shoulders, it’s been Okay. But the title of traveller is passed to you.
But now I have an apartment to get renovated and rented, I have Macbeth in the Park today...Odysseus in IMAX Tuesday night (special inexpensive showing night...lol)
