Meaning
This reads as a life organized around motion, work, and constant transit. It can be taken to mean that travel was not occasional but routine, almost a second home, and that the speaker’s experience was shaped by the demands of a public, busy career. It lands for anyone who has lived out of suitcases and measures time by departures.
