Travel can be a paradox - we want to experience somewhere new, but we want to experience it as though it isn’t new at all. We spend countless hours curating the contents of our suitcase in hopes that our outfit choices blend seamlessly with the local style.

We get lost in the weeds of travel forums searching for authentic eateries. And we pray we can figure out the train system without having to ask for help. Traveling somewhere new for the first, second and even third time can be intimidating, and attempting to experience that place with the ease of a local can actually be quite difficult.
