Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home.

The question ambiguously asked the question ‘from home’… That is a blanket statement that presumes that you went to a destination and then returned to a point of origin.

I have been all over the United States, Hawaii & Alaska, Canada, Europe, Great Britain, Mexico, Belize, and Jamaica. Some of those were on vacation but many of them were because I was relocating to that particular location. When I was in high school we moved to Germany so that wasn’t technically ‘travel’ because I did not return to the destination I have originally departed from. My mother is British so I have been in England a number of times but we were living in Germany so it wasn’t a far trip because from Germany to England is actually closer than New York City and Richmond VA.

I traveled all over Europe when I was there on the Euro-Rail (trains) but again the distance is relative because Europe is relatively compact compared the the U.S. .

Everyone reading this is now asking if I am ever going to answer the question.

Honestly I furthest I have travel and returned to a point of origin was from Phoenix AZ no Nova Scotia Canada. My in-laws have a rustic house on the east coast of Nova Scotia. I is beautiful and quiet and the fresh Atlantic seafood is amazing. I was there in the summer so the temperatures were very pleasant, I am fairly curtain that a winter trip would not have been as enjoyable.

Thanks for tolerating my rambling that barely got to the point.
