destination.

Your designer clothes, carefully checking that the dry cleaner has removed all signs of last
weekend's champagne spillages.

Philosopher Francis Bacon said: "Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the
elder, a part of experience." What are you thinking as you jet or sail to your destination?

You will come back a better, wiser person.

some real estate.
You 'mellow' and stop arguing with every taxi driver, hotel worker and food vendor you believe is
ripping you off.
