How about a mental connection then? Did you know Aristotle said adulthood, or maturity (ie, intellectually creative maturity) begins at 51 (he was always pedantically exact) so Im in my prime.

My eldest sister is married to a Chinese Indonesian so we were invited to celebrate Chinese New Year with her husband's side of the family.

I've always wanted to visit Jakarta, and just the fact that there are thunderstorms as epic as you describe them, that's more than enough to gain my attention. There is something about electricity that scares me and attracts me in the most primitive way, the way some people stare into fire for hours.
"Im afraid the wine has stolen for itself the latter details of the evening. But flashes remain. Were embraced, feverish and damp in the familiar insecurity of our naked skin. Dominant and submissive, we exchanged our worldly respect for the degradation to which we are so careful to hide our addiction.
