So you’ve decided to be a idiot long-term traveler and give up your life back home, albeit temporarily (maybe), to trot around the globe in a desperate attempt to “find yourself”. You’re no doubt having trouble finding the right words to say to the friends and loved ones you’re leaving behind. Enter someecards.com, with the tagline “when you care enough to hit send”. Every one of their e-cards comes with hand-drawn, inspirational artwork to accompany your sentiment.

Enjoy Your Time Off Doing Nothing

For those folks seeing someone off on a long-term journey, perhaps these words are appropriate:

  • I’m already dreading having to look at your pictures
  • I probably won’t even remember that you’re away
  • Enjoy your time in that extremely sketchy place
  • Enjoy your time off from doing nothing

And for travelers enroute looking for something poignant and meaningful to say to the people they left behind:

  • Let’s have phone sex while I’m gone
  • I’d rather not get into detail about how I’m doing
  • Just checking you off my list of people to get back to
  • I think of you every time I browse my cell phone on the toilet

Best of all, they’re free! And guaranteed not to leave a dry eye in the house.
