Profile
*"The difference between a tourist and a traveler is that a tourist seeks only comfort while a traveler seeks discovery. They take more risks. They get pleasure in overcoming difficulties and discomforts, and they seek out the people."--Lea Lane.
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we find in our travels is an honest friend." "SuperRio"
I stumbled across these quotes on this site and it truly sums up my feelings about traveling. The more I travel the more I want to seek the "off beaten" paths towards adventure...;-)
*Trying to really find tranquility in the "here and now" by trying to live life simply.
Namaste...;-)
BTW...I finally have figured out what I want to be when I grow up....A Globe Trekker.... Can't get any better than that!! ...;-)
I voted for education...
I voted for peace...
I voted for change...
I VOTED!!
Obama ROCKS!!
( I still believe for 2012) My Reflection towards the upcoming inauguration and new presidency:
That we come together to serve;
not just for ourselves but to model for our young people so they in turn can continue to work for CHANGE.
WE should work together so that "service" will be part of who WE ARE!
