I miss the olden days of long sea voyages and not knowing if you will survive the journey. Travel today just doesn't cut it. I want bandit raids and near death experiences.

Good luck with that. I'm not interested. Thanks.

Boating off the shores of some Indonesian and African will provide you with this "adventure"!

I'm sure there are places in the middle east that'll satisfy your version of "adventure".

There are still short sea voyages that fit the bill- many migrants still try these sea voyages and die. You could go join one of those.

I'm willing to bet you never experienced those days unless you're a recent migrant. In which case I doubt you'd be romanticizing it.

What an odd post.
