While to me this is not that much because i use a car to travel , i would assume that some who uses a similar mode of transport would feel the same.

I would like to imagine what it would seem like to some one who walks to work on a daily basis , to them it would be as if i was traveling half way around the world. On the flip side of the coin someone that has to travel regularly long distances by plane a car drive seems like nothing to them. Based on this i would like to say that your world is based on how far and how often you travel.

While the internet has made this less noticeable because we can communicate with people over great distances the feeling still persists. I have seen this effect on quite a few people that i know , because they rarely move around they end up attaching them selves to a specific location and this severely limits there perspective of the world.

Let me know what you think about this because one of my dreams is to travel the world ;).
