An Audacious Dream

"If you want change, spread good energy

You must go on adventures to find out where you belong.

To me, travel is more valuable than any stupid piece of bling money can buy.

[...] when you give yourself to places, they give you yourself back; the more one comes to know them, the more one seeds them with the invisible crop of memories and associations that will be waiting for when you come back, while new places offer up new thoughts, new possibilities. Exploring the world is one the best ways of exploring the mind, and walking travels both terrains.

It’s funny. When you leave your home and wander really far, you always think, ‘I want to go home.’ But then you come home, and of course it’s not the same. You can’t live with it, you can’t live away from it. And it seems like from then on there’s always this yearning for some place that doesn’t exist. I felt that. Still do. I’m never completely at home anywhere.

We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.

When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money.
