Travel or Not? Why? Ups and Downs? Where would you never travel?

[Jamie21]

I went to Dubai one time. I’ll never go back, even if they pay me I’m not going back there. 
I’ve travelled quite a lot and I enjoyed  Greece, Canada, Spain, US and Israel. Sweden was ok, and France and Spain but maybe I’m too familiar with France.  I think Spain is interesting; it has so many contradictions. I’ll go anywhere except places like Dubai. It was not an accepting culture and made me sad.

Love traveling and generally have ten(ish) home bases outside of the states~ Two in the UK, Four in the EU, two in India, two in Asia~ my typical schedule in the US is approximately four months out of the year and the rest of the time I’m touring elsewhere. I have sessions that are shorter than a day or two but, I also tend to do a lot of longer sessions that can last anywhere from one week on up to two months. On those longer sessions, we grab a car and drive around through an entire country or two for a month. It’s an incredible education as well as bonding time between my Clients and I~
 Time outside the states is very adventurous and there tends to be more “hotel” type time in the states~ It’s a difference in priorities somewhat~  While I do explore with several Clients in the states, the majority of Clients from here request we travel outside of the country~
 So, I typically would just stay there and meet them unless they specifically like to fly together… That also happens~  

 I personally love/thrive on the travel and love being immersed in different cultures and experiences. New languages, new customs, new ideas and refreshing ways to look at the world~ A lot of growth can come of it~ 
 I’ve pretty much been around the world three times but have more to explore in Africa and Auatralia/New Zealand~ 
 I’ve been a translator, tour guide, photography instructor, health care advocate and assistant, travel coordinator and more for these Clients~ 

 It’s always amazing~ 

 I’ve learned that it is of benefit to be very flexible, not always expect things to turn out 100% as planned… Some of the best surprises can be changes in plans that end up being the most fantastic memories~
 With regard to places I would not travel to: I’ve been to highly dangerous places~ (encounter with Sendero Luminosos in Peru, all kinds of trouble in Venezuela… a few riots here and there in various places but, great experiences over all~  While I found Bosnia-Herzegovina fascinating, I found the post war vibe still vibrant and unsettling~
  As much as I love the idea of spending time in South Korea, I’m not hot on North Korea~  
 Places I have felt most threatened by violence have mainly been in the states. Second runner up was Caracas~

Ha. And all this time I've been fantasizing about the big Burj

Wow, you're beyond the realms of just traveling escort lol. You're an all around Renaissance man. You would be considered Mr. Worldwide 😄

That said your level of travel takes a lot of drive and desire. Despite my love of travel, it's just not as fun as it used to be. At-least within the states. And by fun, it's just in ways that things have changed when it comes to hotels and even bookings. A lot of cities lately have been slow. You may have dozens of inquiries but only 2 or 3 actually show up. And that's lucky because sometimes it'll only be 1 or 2. I also don't have desire to just sit in a city for days on end waiting for bookings anymore. Hotels are too expensive. Lately with the exception of select markets, it's get in and get out within 2 or 3 days. Unless I go to an actually undeserved market, which has been my focus majority of 2021 and will again in 2022. All the big city markets are whored out to oblivion. 

It's also sad how many people who don't escort rarely travel or relocate. Many, especially in the gay Black community, just never leave their home base. We can talk about how things have changed and gotten better, but there's still people who are stuck: stuck in the same neighborhoods, the same counties, the same fucking city and state where they grew up in. 

Being able to move across the country should be an accessible task for many. Unfortunately, only the corporate upper echelon get to do it with ease. Or us escorts if we don't intend to plant too much ties into the location we are.
