I think there's something about an "era" with these travels for young people. when I was in high school in the 1970s I did not know one single grade school or high school person travelling abroad. In recent years (other than COVID years) it seems to have become practically a norm.

(Gah. I am still so coherent. Well, about to finish my first bottle of wine and move on to the bottle of artisanal barley ale.)
