You may have the wanderlust travel gene if…
1. You often think to yourself, “this whole ‘work’ thing keeps getting in the way of my travels, and you consider starting a travel blog.
2. Your bucket list keeps growing every day thanks to Instagram, and the wallpaper on your phone is usually a photo taken from your last trip.
3. You have Skyscanner alerts set up for each destination on your bucket list and your email is starting to get clogged.
4. You have an impressive list of countries visited but still feel like you haven’t been anywhere. So many countries so little time.
5. Every time you see your friends’ travel posts you get a little jealous. Even though you travel just as much or more than they do.
6. You feel sad that you can’t be in 2 places at once when two fun trips happen to fall on the same weekend.
7. Travel is your cardio because you spend so much time running through terminals to catch your next flight and lugging a backpack or suitcase with you.
8. Lugging your carry-on up and down the stairs in Europe has replaced your CrossFit workout. Who needs to run with a tire when you packed 4 pairs of shoes?
9. The last-minute gate change from terminal B to terminal C challenged you to beat your own personal record in the 500-meter dash.
10. You see the pole on the terminal link train and feel the need to take a quick twirl around just to keep things fun.
11. You just pictured number 10 and laughed. (Am I the only one who doesn’t just use those for “holding on”?) 🙂
12. Your travel bag of toiletries is always ready and stays packed (in a clear makeup bag of course). TSA can’t hold you down.
13. You smile smugly knowing that all those years of playing Tetris as a kid finally paid off cause your packing skills are on point.
14. Since you switched from folding your clothes to rolling them with packing cubes you have gained another 5 wardrobe changes and your friends wonder how you always look so cute with “so little”.
15. You were once a member of “Overpackers Anonymous” but those days are behind you now and you’ve seen the light. You were never meant to wear those heels on cobblestone anyway.
16. You literally start planning your next trip while you’re currently on one.
17. You snag an amazing error fare to Europe and think nothing of heading over for a couple of days. You only live once right?! Jet Lag is for amateurs. #YOLO
18. Instead of a work-life balance, you often refer to it as your Work-Travel Balance.
19. You have a respectful hobby of collecting stamps. From customs. In other countries. Time to get the extended page passport.
20. You’ve mastered the fine art of looking fresh after a 15-hour flight in coach using the tiniest of bathrooms.
21. You have way too many photos of blue skies and clouds that were taken from a window seat, but never quite captured the moment you felt.
22. You just nodded Yes to number 21. 🙂
23. You’ve realized that the best souvenirs are the memories travel provides and you can’t imagine yourself ever going back.
*Bonus Point* You send this quiz to all of your travel friends who have the Wanderlust Travel Gene just like you. 🙂
The results are in! How did you do?
Coach 0-7 Points:
Weekend Warrior – You like to travel on the weekends when it suits your schedule, but you won’t be scouring flight deals on Travel Tuesday.
Premium Economy 8-15 Points:
Exquisite Explorer – You’ve been to your fair share of countries and you know your way around an airport. Your bumper sticker says “I’d rather be traveling” and you never met a glass of free champagne that you didn’t like. Wheels up!
First Class 16-24 Points:
Globetrotting Gallivanter – Travel is in every chromosome of your DNA and you wouldn’t have it any other way. You’re on your second passport and you just hit Gold status on your favorite airline. You frequent the lounge so much that they know you by name. You’re always ready for a last-minute getaway and can be packed within an hour. Congratulations, my friend, you have the Wanderlust Travel Gene.
