This was the year I never took a trip. Between pandemic burn-out and changing jobs, this past year never really happened for me travel-wise. And so, in lieu of an actual journey, I'm offering a favorite photo (subject to change) from each trip I took ever since I started recording them digitally. [There were a number of trips where I either forgot my camera, didn't bother to take pictures, or else somehow lost the photos. Well, nothing I can do about that.]
