Being a military brat ruined normal travel for me

Raised by a strict single mom in the military. No crazy family drama, just strict discipline and a lot of moving around. She finally discharged about ten years ago, and I actually thanked her a few years back for how she handled it all—solo parenting in the service is no joke.

We were stationed in Italy, Germany, and South Korea. The weirdest part was watching my peers at the base schools. Total NPC behavior. They lived in Western Europe and East Asia for years and their entire world was bounded by the PX, eating American junk food inside the perimeter, and complaining that locals didn't speak English.

I made a point to get off-base as much as possible, learn the lay of the land, wander the actual towns, and soak in where we were actually living.

Ten years post-discharge, I can't stand standard tourism. Once you've spent your formative years actually living across three continents, paying $2000 to sit in a resort surrounded by tourists feels like total brainrot.

Any other ex-brats on /trv/?
