The best of travel seems to exist outside of time, as though the years of travel are not deducted from your life.

YES ! I love this ! This is probably similar to those hypothetical space travelers who experience time at a different pace from the ones left “stationary” behind on Earth…when they come back looking only a couple of years older, they find everyone else from their generation all wrinkled and using a cane ! (cf. the special theory of relativity of Mr. Albert Einstein and the famous twin paradox)
