Once you're in the game and it's a part of your life, you never want to leave it. But you have to be committed to be able to travel and do the things you need to do to be successful in whatever role you're doing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Because travel has always been such a vital part of myself and so essential to who I am, I have made the decision to continue to put myself back out into the world. And that's not an easy decision to make.
The thing about travelling is that you work hard and play hard, but you can do all those things without your parents knowing.
Traveling gives you some perspective of what the rest of the world is like. I think that having the courage to step out of the norm is the most important thing.
There can be many reasons to travel, but wandering into the world for no particular reason is a sublime madness, which in all its whimsy and pointlessness may depict the story of life - and indeed could be a useful model to keep in mind, seeing as so much of life's ambition comes unstuck or leads to nothing much at all.
You don't want to get too wrapped up in that final destination. You want to enjoy the journey, enjoy the process, and just take it one step at a time.
Games have always presented an opportunity to escape. But they are also an opportunity to go somewhere that you come to know well.
Connecting with people, getting things done - that's what makes the travel worthwhile.
The travel impulse is mental and physical curiosity. It's a passion. And I can't understand people who don't want to travel.
It's important to travel and move and have a continual set of experiences so you've got more to feed back into your work. For me, it's a natural thing.
My desire to exit the game is greater than my desire to remain in it. I have searched my heart through and through and feel comfortable with this decision.
