What's with the normie obsession for travel? It seems so shallow and performative

I've traveled and it's not something transformative. What I have learned is that people are people and mostly the same short of some major religious/cultural difference

It's precisely the cultural differences that people want to see. It's also cool seeing landmarks and geographies you can't get in your own country. If you can't appreciate those things then you don't have to travel.
>>
It is shallow and performative as you said. There's a social perception of travel being associated with value/class and people love faking those things. They are of course unaware of their own brainwashing and will not understand even if it's explained to them as it will also potentially invalidate or invert their experiences from positive to negative and people would prefer to live in a sweet delusion even if it's just rotting them.

I can, don't project shit onto me. Like I said, humans are more or less the same everywhere

People dont travel abroad to scrutinise the locals retard.
Like I said. People go travel to see different cultures, landmarks, landscapes, etc.

>I can
Clearly you cannot. That's okay though.

anon people travel to meet new people and have sex with them. sex is just an everyday thing for normies. you have to understand that their world revolves around sex. meaning yes they exchange bodily fluids and orgasm together and then lay with each other for a while

It's something to talk about with family and other wagies. I feel like as a grown person you are constantly novelty seeking in anything.

travel is fun when it is an actual adventure.
my parents traveling to europe to some boring ass church and after that they eat at mcdonald's is a weird boomer humiliation ritual that some rich zoomers carry on the new tradition.
no one before the 60s traveled abroad except of people who worked at colonialist companies and such.

You are an uppity normie nigger.

Tell me, what is your travel experience then?
>>
>>84306730
Travel is great if you are actually partaking in the culture and making stories, the funniest shit that ever happened to me happened while traveling
>>
>>84306730
they like to go somewhere sunny and eat food
that's the appeal to most people
>>
All the fun things are at home.
>>
>>84308660
I agree.

There is nothing inherently wrong with travel but if you can't be happy at home with yourself you won't be happy anywhere with anyone.

>>84306730
Another one of Satan's ploys. Make people perpetually unsatisfied with what they have so that our relationships become more unstable and difficult to maintain.

I have been thinking about this too. A lot of posters are right in saying that this is class/consoomer thing. Mainly, proles need to relax from waging non stop, so they have to be conditioned to releax somewhere else. Their personal lives are so infested by their economic duties that they have to leave their usual environment to chill and they're willing to pay a fucking lot for it.
Most people are neurotypical too. NTs get their desire mainly from what other normies want and roll with it. But there is something else going on: routine kills their perception. The normie brain will filter any sensory and mental stimulus eventually. They need something to change and when traditions are being replaced or repackaged into commodities for consooming, they need something else to change. Literally anything, so they change their location for a while
