Getting back into the habit of travel - maybe.

 So I think I may have forgotten how to travel. These last two years have been confusing, restrictive, and just all around depressing and I - like the rest of the world - would like things to be easier. Remember when you could just decide to take a trip and all you had to worry about was if you needed a visa? Now there is so much more... Covid-19 vaccination certificate. PCR tests, or Rapid Antigen tests. Covid restrictions in the country you want to visit. Mask requirements. Travel insurance in case you catch Covid. And then after all those considerations, you might be able to get down to the business of planning what you actually want to on said trip. It is enough to make me want to curl up on the couch and stay home! But I must plan a trip, and soon. You see, I have a new passport, all nice and shiny and EMPTY. I cannot leave it in this state, it must be used!
