"We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
"This is one corner of one country in one continent on one planet that's a corner of a galaxy that's a corner of a universe that is forever growing and shrinking and creating and destroying and never remaining the same for a single millisecond. And there is so much - so much- to see."
"It's a dangerous business... going out of your door. You step into the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to."
"The traveler is active; he goes strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing."
"Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you will get neither."
So, I've decided that starting a blog is the most sensible way of keeping the most amount of people informed and keeping a travel journal. I cannot guarantee how much I will actually use it, but I'm going to make an attempt. I would just like to say that the theme to this blog is mainly because this is an opportunity to get my inner-nerd out there, not because I feel like I am in Middle Earth. I have been pretty intentional about this from the beginning of my journey a year ago. Those who know me well know that I relate most of my life to LotR (which seems sad now that it's said), so this was just the best way to provide some entertainment for my fellow geeks, be myself and provide a lens for you to understand what I am experiencing.
Cheers!
