I think I might be more-prone to nerd sniping when I'm travelling.

When a boat tour guide told me that the Netherlands used to have a window tax, I fell down a rabbit hole of how it influenced local architecture and why the influence was different in the UK.
Why does travelling make me more-prone to nerd sniping? Maybe I should see if there's any likely psychological effect that might cause that...
