Dromomania
Welcome. You have now entered the realm of Dromomania. A swirling miasma of the five senses. A dangerous or delicious dreamworld. A place where only the brave at heart and foolhearty thrive.
Like any addiction Dromomania quickly becomes a lifestyle. There's no turning back once you've gingerly set out on the Big D Highway. As the great Bette D. said, "Fasten your seat belts it's going to be a bumpy ride."
Wanderlust, restlessness and the intrepid search for adventure will swiftly thrust you into the Dromodome. Dromomania: the seductive and insatiable urge to travel!
If you're sipping an espresso on the Champs d'Elysee and can only think of a beach in Bali, then you're a dromomaniac. If you're living in a villa in Tuscany and can't stop thinking about New York, chances are you're a dromomaniac. Dreaming of a sunset over the Rockies while geishas delight you in Kyoto? Definitely a dromo.
Wine me, dine me. Wrap me in seed pearls and toss diamonds in my pockets. Fill my boudoir with gardenias. I love it all. But, pick me up for a spin, take me sailing or slip a couple of airline tickets my way - irresisteble. The most seductive sweet nothings a dromogirl likes to hear are the words 'let's go !'
So pack your bag, be sure your passport is in order and meet me at the airport. In the immortal words of Scarface, "The world is mine."
