Another Movie Meme

This one yoinked from absotivity.

219 movies in a list, and if you have watched more than 85 of them, you have no life. (I'm not sure why these 219 particular movies, and why 85 is the limit.)

Tick away!

Total: 88 (not counting originals + remakes)

So I have no life (just about). Of course, it probably doesn’t help that I’ve watched many, many more movies than the ones on the list.

1. How do you feel about travel? Like it, love it, hate it? Wish you did more or less or neither? Do you have wanderlust? Are you a homebody?
I don't particularly like travelling, but I like being someplace else. I like travelling with a purpose - to see friends or see or do a particular something. And, with my gimpy leg, I think I am a bit more of a homebody now.

2. What's the furthest you've ever been from home (whatever that means to you) in terms of physical distance? How about culturally?
Physically, Japan (over 8,000 miles away). Didn't feel very culturally close-to-home there either.

3. Are there places you'd like to go but haven't? What's appealing about them?
I want to see Mongolia. I like deserts.

4. Are there places you return to? Are there places you return to because you want to?
Black Rock City (though I skipped last year and it may be a while before I go again). And yes, you only return there because you want to.

5. Travel is often associated with things like self-discovery and identity formation. Does it work this way for you? Why or why not?
Again, it's not the travel, it's the being and living elsewhere that I like, and where I think you learn the most. Living overseas in Japan made me a lot more self-reliant and helped to solidify my identity of myself as a Canadian (I know that sounds pretentious, shaddap).
