“No changing of place at a hundred miles an hour will make us one whit stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, walked they ever so slowly; they will see it no better for going fast. The really precious things are thought and sight, not pace”
–Ruskin
"We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret tonic of creativity.
When we get home, home is still the same. But something in our mind has been changed, and that changes everything" 🍃💦💚 —Jonah Lehrer, Why We Travel: The San Francisco Panorama (McSweeney’s, scienceblogs.com/cortex/2009/12/10/why-we-travel)
What is your main philosophy in life? #🍃 # "I have a few. Be kind, live and let others live, always challenge yourself to take risks, and happiness is a direction, not a place." —Rousseau
"Some hae meat and canna eat,

September is perfect for new beginnings. Typically January is the beginning of the year, but for me September always feels like New Year.
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”

What I do when visiting a Buddhist temple in Thailand:
1. Dress appropriately
2. No hats!
3. Sankrit/Thai prayer to each Buddha
4. Money donation (we give food/daily items donation to monks during their daily morning walks in the marketplace)
5. Relax for 5 seconds before the rest of your family/relatives decide to leave and you have 5 minutes for travel photography 😂
"Cities were always like people, showing their varying personalities to the traveler.
Depending on the city and on the traveler, there might begin a mutual love, or dislike, friendship, or enmity. Where one city will rise a certain individual to glory, it will destroy another who is not suited to its personality.
Only through travel can we know where we belong or not."
—Roman Payne (Cities & Countries)

The word "travel" comes from the Old French word "travail" (or "travailler"), which means "to work, to labor; a suffering or painful effort, an arduous journey, a tormenting experience." ("Travel," thus, is "a painful and laborious journey").
Whereas "to wander" comes from the West Germanic word "wandran," which simply means "to roam about." There is no labor or torment in "wandering." There is only "roaming."
Wandering is the activity of the child, the passion of the genius; it is the discovery of the self, the discovery of the outside world, and the learning of how the self is both "at one with" and "separate from" the outside world.
These discoveries are as fundamental to the soul as "learning to survive" is fundamental to the body. These discoveries are essential to realizing what it means to be human. To wander is to be alive.”
― Roman Payne, Europa

"We wanderers, ever seeking the lonelier way, begin no day where we have ended another day; and no sunrise finds us where sunset left us. Even while the earth sleeps we travel. We are the seeds of the tenacious plant, and it is in our ripeness and our fullness of heart that we are given to the wind and are scattered." —Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
Feed your hunger for travel, learning, and adventure and recruit others to join you as you broaden your horizons.

"What we find exotic abroad may be what we hunger for in vain at home" —The Art of Travel by Alain de Botton
"Whether our action is wholesome or unwholesome depends on whether that action or deed arises from a disciplined or undisciplined state of mind.
It is felt that a disciplined mind leads to happiness and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering, and in fact it is said that bringing about discipline within one's mind is the essence of the Buddha's teaching."
—Dalai Lama XIV, The Art of Happiness

"Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving."
