According to Marriott’s online travel-personality quiz, which promises to reveal a participant’s “true travel persona,” I’m an “All Work Traveler”:

You’re a road warrior if there ever was one. Days spent dodging through security lines and deftly maneuvering your bag between the inexperienced is your specialty. Hey, you’d love to catch a break sometime and swap meetings and room service for an afternoon by the pool, but at the end of the day you’re secretly proud to be a member of this power set.

That sounds about right. Impressive, considering how few questions I had to answer to generate the profile.

Your mileage may vary, of course. But if you can spare the 60 seconds or so it takes to check the appropriate boxes on the questionnaire, it’s worth having your travel personality analyzed — if not for any deep insights then at least for whatever amusement value such exercises may provide.
