Shit this makes me want to ditch the girlfriend and do a Kerouac

Travel - I try to spend atleast 10 days in each place. I am in Florida for 2 weeks, the Caribbean for 2 weeks, Europe for 10 days, repeat. The day in transit, sucks, and I always say, "This is the last time". Then at the end of the 2 weeks, I say, "It has been another lovely 2 weeks, time to visit the other life."
That is the thesis behind my book, can a person maintain multiple lives? I have found the answer to be yes. I have a life in Florida, a life in the Caribbean, and a life in Europe. All of them flowing at the same time, with no or little connection to each other.
Shit - What some people call possessions. They weigh you down. I am by no means a gypsy. I have a home base, Florida, in which I own everything. So there is an anchor, that I can come down back to at all times, and I have found no other place on this planet like where I live in Florida. I just was never fooled into the consumption based principles of, "Buy this, it will make you feel good" or "Buy this you really need it". I am always amazed at home many people have George Foreman grills
