Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

John Higham asks, Did you ever suffer from travel burnout? If so, what did you do to mix things up?

Absolutely. Traveling extensively can be very tiring. What I’d usually do it just go on what I’d call an anti-vacation. I’d hole up in a place and just stay there for a few weeks playing video games.

I stayed in Saigon for a month, just hanging out and working. I did the same thing in Melbourne, Bangkok, and several other places around the world.

Everyone I know who traveled full-time eventually gets burned out. Its pretty unavoidable if you travel long enough.
