    At 27, I’m a bit of a seasoned traveler. I used to fly places all the time when I was a kid with my mom and older brother, and when I was a teenager I was lucky enough to go to Europe for a long trip. Now I drive everywhere for work and that means driving all over the damn south-southeast US. I’d much rather fly half the time, because it’s faster, easier to deal with because of the lack of jackasses on the road, and I can chill on the flight.

    Of course driving does have its perks sometimes.
