Isn't "continent hopping" exactly how humans ended up in the Americas to begin with?

No. Human migration is not "traveling the world forever" in this context. There's a huge difference between going to Argentina this summer for a few months and then popping over the Colombia for a weekend before heading to France for a jazz festival and staying another couple of weeks before heading to Cologne for the weekend and then the real fun going to Zimbabwe and doing some safari.

True, but I still think that travel should be more accessible, not less.
