    • Asymmetrical Visiting Costs

    		 January 16th, 2013

    Traveling is both expensive and unpleasant: my house is more comfortable than a bus or plane, and much cheaper. If people visit each other with similar frequency, then this all balances out, when someone has more time for traveling than another there are probably a lot of visits that don't happen because of how the costs are divided.

    Switching to a convention where the visitee pays traveling costs would partly work, but then you're potentially in a situation where people are paying costs they don't have control over. I'm not sure this would work better than the current system. Suggestions?

    On the Beach

    I really like going in the water and this beach is a great place for building sand castles and boogie boarding. I also like trying to float on top of big waves. I'm not very good at it. I only float on the flat waves.
