I think it's one of those "to each their own" questions...Everyone's got ambitions to do something with their lives, and for some people that includes a large dollop of wanderlust.
I'm very much like you - I wouldn't mind going to see, I don't know, Japan or China or something, but the time, money and inclination necessary to do it just don't come together, and I'm not desperate enough to go there that I'm going to make any effort. I'd probably enjoy another weekend in the Lake District or a trip to France at some point next year, but queuing for hours to get a visa, then fannying around with long-haul flights? Can't be arsed.
Ms Crow, on the other hand, seems to have the travelling bug - spent 3 months wandering round China and America last year and loved it. Desperate to go back to China. But most importantly, unlike some people I've encountered, she doesn't look down on me for having not "travelled" in the middle-class sense of the word or for not being interested.

I'm going to the outer hebrides for a couple of weeks next yearand can't wait.
it's the first holiday I've been properly excited about I think.
Wanderlust is something I have never experienced.
