I guess that's one way of looking at it. You still want to remember the important things though. Memories are funny in that they can be highly contextual. So a picture you took in Copenhagen, however bad/amateur the actual picture can be a hook for all the great times you had in Copenhagen.
It's one of the interesting side-effects of being a digital nomad. When you're in one place and doing the same thing every day it tends to get compressed and discarded. When you're constantly changing things and experiencing friction you don't drop into that 'automatic' mode in the same way. I feel like I'm constantly being challenged.
I've traveled a lot, both professionally and privately and there are some 'snapshots' that I have where I am 100% sure I was there but I haven't a clue where or when it was. It's the weirdest thing. One for instance is a series of grain storage silos, one after the other and they're all falling apart. No idea where it was or in what year that was other than that it must have been while I was living in Canada. But it could have been anywhere in the United States or Canada. I'd have to backtrack all of my trips to find it again, and yet, it's clear as day, so vivid.
