My favorite place in the world is …
yet to be discovered.
Aisle, window, or middle seat?
Aisle
Best travel tip:
Pack light. There are very few things that you need that you can't get when you get there.
What I consider a travel emergency:
If you wind up on an island with some weird black smoke and a guy named Ben.
Biggest cultural hurdle:
Checking your American ego at the border.
I think you should go abroad because …
you already know what it's like around here. By traveling, you'll either find a place you like better or you'll learn to appreciate where you live — it's a win-win situation.
