I'll let my kid I had when my wife was 37 know that he's not in the cards.
And no, he's not retarded.

Motherhood deferred: U.S. median age for giving birth hits 30
Decisions by college-educated women to invest in their educations and careers so they could be better off financially when they had children have contributed to the shift toward older motherhood.

The Mystery of the Declining U.S. Birth Rate | Econofact
The U.S. birth rate has fallen by 20% since 2007. If sustained, this could impact economic growth, productivity, and social insurance programs down the line.

I do think her partying a lot in her 20s to early 30s may have caused her to not explore herself as much and now she's actually figuring out who she is and what she wants (maybe?).
I've run into women like that before in their mid to late 30s, an event like a previous marriage or other circumstances prevented them from developing an identity, so they spend their 30s being free to develop and explore that identity. The idea of having a family I'm sure puts a dampener on that self-exploration and why those type of women become resistant to the idea of it.

Cut your losses and move on. If she won't communicate that's always going to be an issue. If she is really planning to have kids and is in her 30s she needs to be trying hard like right now. Otherwise it probably isn't happening.

"More difficult" does not equate to "not in the cards."
You said something stupid, you can walk it back and just take the L. It's okay.

I'm pretty sure the general population is that stupid regardless, so I'm not sure I put too much faith in those stats. They are tracking downs syndrome but the actual retards out there are way more prevalent than that.

Couple of things.
It is the luck of the draw to have a kid with issues. However the odds get higher after a certain age, so you should NOT plan to have kids that late.
She wants to marry and travel the world? Or she just want to travel the world with you as her sex outlet/emotional support, and does not want a family?
I guess you and her have different ideas of what marriage is and what is the role of kids on it. This by itself sounds like an incompatibility.
She wants to travel until what? until she visits every country? What need is she trying to satiate by travelling? It must be very cool to visit the pyramids or the sixteenth chapel, but no one will be a better person for traveling to xyz place.
It reads like a wierd role reversal when the guy is the one finding excuses not to marry, but continuing to get the pussy.
I won't place too much emphasis on the not sharing feelings, maybe she is just wired that way. I would place more emphasis on the incompatibility relationship and what each one of you want out of life. You wants kids, she wants a fully stamped passport.

Not true, I know my experiences traveling in my 20s had an impact for the better on how I see and interact with the world.

After we broke up last September, she spent 2 months working remote across Europe. When she came back and we started talking again this year, she still brought up the travel excuse for putting off on the family stuff lol. She said she wants to wait a year. I mean she's been to a lot of places before me, and never provided an answer to how much more travelling she wants to do. I think it's more about me not putting my foot down at this point and giving her too much leeway because she's a nice person...

She is a man... who wants to travel and slay pussy.
Imagine her as having a Bike and riding into the sunset with a cool jacket, and you on the town asking "why cant you stay here with me?" and she replies " I was born to roam, i cant stay baby"

I don't understand the the mentality behind thinking you can't travel if you have kids. I travelled extensively with small children. My son had a passport before he even turned 1 and had been to 5 different countries before his second birthday.
It definitely does depend on the kind of travelling you want to do I suppose. I have never been interested in drinking myself into a coma every night or climbing everest, so that kind of travel would definitely be harder with children.
For me, I just pushed a pram around imperial city, held hands to keep grubby fingers off the statues in uffizi and walked around batu caves wearing a babybjorn. It added to the experience for me, having a growing family with me. The wide eyed enthusiasm of children makes it more exciting.
