I'm 29, never left the country. My bucket list is visiting Japan at the very top. I have no idea what you do or if you have to go through travel agencies, how much money you should bring etc

It probably was a temporary link, it's broken to me too now. It was an image of the US put on top of europe. And the usa is huge.

I still think traveling to a place with a different language and political context make a huge difference, even with how wide the US is.

Ah, okay.

Interestingly the USA is about the same size as Australia in terms of land mass, but has Australia only has 25 million people living there, compared to 331 million in the USA. There's a loooot of desert in the middle of Australia.

People in the us don't need to travel much with how diverse north america already is, but it's still a shame

I would rather say, they can travel extensively to many different places, many different climates, many different cultures, all in the same country. So getting a passport is not a priority
