You know, I've traveled to more countries than I have states and I have wanted to remedy that for a long while. Like many East Coasters, I tend to have a very two dimensional view of what other parts of the country are like, which I realize is unfair. I've mentioned before that I love to travel by rail, which I really wish was a more affordable mode of transportation in the US. It would be so great if hyperloop or maglev trains gained a foothold here. I really think that cheap, easy travel within this country could go a long way toward really giving its citizens a much better understanding of the enormous place we call home, not to mention the people we share it with. Since that is unlikely to happen, I guess I'll just have to get myself a decent motorcycle and see it that way sometime.
