When I grow up: I will live in New York City.

This is New York City. May I never leave it. It shows me how people can get along. It shows me a view of a world far bigger than mine. Touching all of the textures. This is my New York. Contributing to this flavor is my life.

Am I grown up?
New York lives in me. It travels with me in every experience, it is who I show my children they can be. It flavors my every leaning.
The same could all be said of travel. Travel is lifeblood. It is the push of seeing everything through a lens other than your own. Less selfishly. With more empathy. From you derive knowledge, skill a communication you did not have before.
