I just hit 12 different countries in 18 months

It wasn't a goal, but my travel app tallied it up and the number really hit me. I realized I've been moving so fast between places like Lisbon and Chiang Mai that I haven't built a real routine anywhere. My work is suffering because every month is a new setup. Has anyone else hit a travel count that made them slow down?

Look at that number as proof you're living right now. That blur you feel is just the price for real experiences you can't get sitting still. Your work might slip a bit, but you're building a life of stories most people only dream about. Slowing down means trading adventure for comfort, and comfort kills growth. Keep moving while you can.

Oh man, I know that feeling exactly. I did ten countries in a year once and it just became a blur of airports and new SIM cards. I was so tired all the time from just figuring out basic stuff, like where to buy groceries in each new city. My work totally slipped because I was always unpacking and never in a groove. Seeing that number finally made me book a place for three whole months to just stop moving.

My friend did that and forgot which country her toothbrush was in, @patriciar49.
