Another different perspective, from Brian Chesky:

Repetition doesn’t create memories. New experiences do. Our perception of time is really driven by our perception of the unfamiliar, vivid and new. Of course, it turns out time slows down the most during life threatening experiences. [1] A safer way to slow down time is to travel. Travel is a new experience that can transport you out of your everyday routine to create memories with the ones you love.

That's interesting. Repetition doesn't create memories but it does create skills. Maybe that's why when we get older we tend to have fewer new experiences but more skills. Because of repetition - the more we live the more we repeat something.
