What’s been your favorite recent exotic trip? Asking in the spirit of vicarious travel as, aside from work, I haven’t traveled internationally for the last five years or so. And by some strange coincidence my oldest kid is five.
We went to Peru last year. It was incredible, though I packed way too much into a 2 week itinerary, so it was exhausting. It would've been much better if we could've done the same itinerary through slow travel. My spouse was not a big fan of the third world amenities in a lot of the places we stayed though.
I think my all time favorite vacation was the time we rented a campervan in New Zealand and drove it from Queenstown to Auckland. The free camping there was unreal.
