In the last year travelling around the world I have met some amazing people. As I have been mainly staying in backpackers they tend to be a newer generation of people, not my own generation Y. This has been a great experience on the whole as they see the same things very differently but there is one thing I really don’t understand…
You have chosen to travel the world and are seeing some of the most amazing sights; both natural and manmade. However on the whole the first thought is to get a photo/selfie and move on.
Don’t get me wrong I like a good photo to capture the moment but after I have taken in the sights and thought about what I am seeing.
This was never more apparent when I recently visited the Great Ocean Road, which has some of the most amazing sea rock formations. People literally spent 30 seconds taking photos and moving on. WHY, WHY, WHY! Think you are seeing millions of years of rock formations creating a truly stunning visual experience and I assure you pictures wont do it justice.
Mini rant over. So young people, stop and enjoy the experience then take a photo. Your experience will be so much richer with a lasting memory.
Quitting my life!!! 
Doesn’t it boggle your mind that just one generation younger than us….more like a half a generation at that…..have a completely different mindset?!

Its so strange because I remember having a debate with my then boss a few years ago who is in the next generation around working from home. He just couldn’t get the concept where to me it was a no-brainer.
However looking to the positives new brillant ideas come with each generation.
