Moab, Utah. Arches National Park is amazing.
I’ll call you on your sh*t, please call me on mine. Then we can grow together and make this sh*t-hole planet better, in time. Consider someone else: STOP CONSUMING ANIMALS.

I realize that it is not eco-friendly, which makes me sad... BUT I've been across the International Dateline AND the Prime Meridian. I'm proud to be a world traveler. I wish it could be in a greener way.
I've never left the UK. We didn't have the money when we were kids, then through Uni I didn't get a grant and decided debt was a foolish idea just to travel. Once married I also didn't have much money, and once we were off the bread line we had survived so long without travel it didn't seem worth it.
Quitting something because it's hard is wrong, and quitting something because it's wrong is hard. One takes cowardice, the other bravery.
My first time overseas was on a cruise at the beginning of the year. Flew from Melbourne up to Sydney first, a day later we headed off to Vanuatu and New Caledonia. Was very awesome and really cool! Definitely would do it again, perhaps to different ports though.
I hate it when I'm studying and a velociraptor throws bananas on me.
I live a sheltered life. I have seen all of seven states in the U.S. and traveled to Canada a few times, up to Kenora and stayed in a cabin on Lake of the Woods a few times. I have never been oversees but I dream of visiting the UK! I'm just too poor right now and getting worse with student loans.
Student loans are horrible Robin. I taught in Korea and they paid for my flight there, and the apartment, so I was able to save up enough money to pay off my loans. If I hadn't had that deal, I wouldn't have been able to travel either.
See, in all our searching, the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.

Wow, what a wonderful opportunity! And yet so scary! I can not imagine going over seas to live in a place so different than home, even if only for a temporary period of time. But it would certainly broaden one's horizons and perspective. How did you like it there?
It really was scary! I had never been out of the US before, and I was used to living in the country. I lived in downtown Seoul, and the time zone was completely opposite from home. I really loved it though! I had so much fun and met so many great people, and I loved teaching. Living in the city was amazing, and you could get anything you wanted at any hour, and the public transportation was cheap and great. I miss it sometimes. When I first got back to the US, everything seemed so open and small. Guess I had gotten used to skyscrapers as far as the eye could see!

what is home? been a lot of places but not South America or Antartica. Someday.
Now my daughter thinks of home as Beijing So Cal and UK. Hardly remembers England past Grandmas garden...
I figure .everywhere is 'bout the same distance from the centre
Furthest away I ever felt from what I know has to be diving a reef. That is another world!
Furthest you have been from home
