I was thinking if I have a baby I go travel with him/her, even though the baby won't remember anything at that age 😂. I also met some couples during trips, taking care a baby is really a lot of work. I see “what if” as a way to plan ahead and keep a plan B or C.

Hotel brings me a lot personal moment, some of them are more like apartment, not hotel. But soon I found it's a bit boring. Then I try hostels, good to chat with other travellers and meet interesting people. Hostels usually have nice kitchen so I can cook my favorite meal. Some people just run a hostel in their own house, make it no different from living in other’s home. For family you might want to book a whole room or family suite.

English seems widely spoken, but not everyone speak it. I try to learn their languages, sometimes I just chat with them using Google Translate day and night 🤣. I had excuses before, but time and ability to move are precious, I got lots of time to settle down when I get old. Sometime I see those seniors traveling alone, I think about what is it like when I get there. When you get started all excuses just gone. You start think rationally when things come up and find you way out. Most importantly, always stay positive.

This makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the reply! :)
