    I’ve traveled a bit too, not that much, but to every state in the U.S., through all of Canada and Mexico, and China as well. And it’s just amazing to experience all that and see how much we have in common and yet, the most modern of all those places was China - their cities look like something out of the not too distant future. So much neon, it reminded me of Blade Runner. And I’ve trekked to the most remote, untouched parts of Mexico were people still live in mud huts or under old mattresses for a roof with no walls - and you see that human civilization hasn’t really progressed at all in those spots. It’s just an eye-opening experience.
