    I disagree with the author's usage of the term hypermobility to describe frequent travel. Hypermobility should only be used to describe an increased range in the movement of joints, not travel, especially in medical publications such as this one. This improper usage of hypermobility minimizes the true definition of hypermobility.  As someone with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility type, I can testify to the devastation that hypermobility can cause, having suffered multiple joint dislocations as a result of it.
