I can’t say that I’ve been able to travel very extensively in my life so far, unfortunately.
- When I was growing up we didn’t really have much money, so our family didn’t take trips together.
When I got to working age, all my time was devoted to keeping up with my responsibilities and bills. At this point, I’m just too stuck in my ways to consider hopping on a plane and jetsetting across the planet for no good reason. It’s just uncomfortable to consider traveling when you aren’t used to it that way. That’s one of the reasons I was so excited when my best friend wanted to take a tropical vacay and asked me to go with – finally, I wouldn’t have to risk it alone. It turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life, and comfort was definitely not an issue. In fact, the hotel had the best AC system I’ve ever felt in my entire life. It wasn’t freezing cold or jarring when you came into the lobby – it felt fresh, cool, and natural somehow with a massive AC unit pumping cool air indoors. Our room had more incredible indoor air temperature control – our own thermostat allowed us to alter the indoor air quality in a jiffy whenever we got uncomfortable. There were radiant heated floors in the bathroom and kitchen. We had a mini split ductless heating and cooling system in the main room. Each bedroom had a separate zone controlled heating and cooling device. I have to say, the beach was great… I enjoyed the ocean… but it was the hotel’s HVAC system that felt like a lifetime experience.
