Once you have been struck with the wanderlust bug, life will change forever. Staying still is not an option thanks to your overwhelming need to see the world. Before you know it, you have fallen in love with cultures of countries that you have never even been to.
Wanderlust by definition is: A strong desire to travel.
With that being said, here are 10 problems that every one with the travel bug runs into.
1. You have a Pinterest board dedicated to your travel places.
And before you know it, you have spent hours researching your dream destinations. You also become accustomed with the best methods of transportation, dining on a budget, and the top twenty things to do in that said city.
2. You never say no to a road trip or adventure.
Spontaneity is key.
3. You have a few days of sadness after the end of a vacation.
Leaves from a week long vacation at the ocean
"Let's all take a moment of silence to mourn the loss of my mental health... and my tan"
4. You spend the better half of your free time daydreaming about the places you'll go.
Side effects may include: problems in school, accents from countries you are longing to go to, and unrealistic travel expectations.
Let's face it, Lizzie McGuire set the bar high.
5. You are ready for your next trip by the end of your current one.
It is hard to live in the moment when your travel bucket list is as lengthy as a novel.
6. You are convinced you will have a foreign boyfriend from one of your worldly escapades.
And are confident when you bring the British super-model home for Thanksgiving that the whole family will love him.
7. You would rather spend money on travel plans than on any new technology.
Sorry, I am going to have to pass on the iPhone 7. I am saving up for a train ticket from Paris to Rome in 2018.
8. Your budget says no but your yearning heart says yes.
You realize the apartment with a view of the Eiffel Tower is a bit out of your price range.
9. You think about all the places you would move to regularly.
Even if it meant you had to sleep on a few couches in the process of making it happen.
10. You think life a life full of traveling is a life well spent.
And you are determined to make your life into a grand adventure because of this.
