Like you, Martial Arts. I've been out of Krav Maga for a few years and I'm not in the shape I was, but from 2005-2010 I was regularly practicing and I was in the best shape of my life and it gave me a confidence boost that I could defend myself in a street situation.
Traveling to a country that pushes you out of you comfort zone. For me that was Bolivia. Bad food, altitude sickness, remoteness, cold, putrid bathrooms. It only lasted a few days the but the memories will be with me a lifetime and the photos and stories I can show girls when they sit on my couch has them intrigued. You haven't traveled until you've traveled to a place where you are VERY uncomfortable.
