13. I don't travel much.

I simply don't have the budget for it.

When I did, in years past, I never had any trouble traveling alone, or eating alone. I love having a hotel room all to myself. I've done quite a bit of traveling to conferences for work over the years; I often pay extra so I don't have to share a room with a colleague. We spend all day together in conferences, and then they plan nights out on the town in strange cities; I sometimes eat dinner with them, almost never go exploring, and am most often found alone in my room with room service...and bliss. No chores, nobody who has to have my attention, some good books...I'm content.
