View submission: Travel not for me anymore
My husband and I don’t have kids, but we have been enjoying our time off in the same ways you describe. I love day trips, and just walking to a new cafe or different part of the city I’m in.
Plane travel stresses me out. I have tiny ear canals so descent is always a bit painful, and I’m paranoid about getting sick, and I just don’t like being squished up next to a bunch of strangers. And most of all, I want to support our beautiful planet and not do more needless damage.

This is such a good point as I forward plan what my life would be like when we retire too (one day!). Simple day trips sound so wonderful. The carbon footprint with travelling especially on planes is not good either so you are doing well for the planet thinking about this too
