Why aren't you getting the fun trips overseas if (s)he is the one leaving?

Unless you don't want them.

Well, the trips were planned before he was leaving. Steve wanted the Russia, and it seems that much of the far east has issues with long-hair. That may become "too bad" in the future. Also, a flight to the far east in cattle-car hardly qualifies as "fun".

So, partially, I don't really want them. They often come with far too short notice to properly plan a holiday around -- I've usually got lots of other things booked in my life around my travel, already.
