I've always wanted to travel, and see the world and go new places and see new things. I love going to new places. Even if it's just a new restaurant down the street.

I adore airports. I always get so excited being in one, thinking about what kinds of adventures the planes could whisk you away to. Even if I'm not actually at the airport to go somewhere on a plane, but just meeting a friend or family member there, I still love it.

I in fact recently bought some travel books at a book sale which have done nothing but affirm this desire of mine to go new places......

(Especially Ireland.... and England... and pretty much anywhere in Europe)

(I also love people watching...)

While we are on the subject, a friend recently showed me this blog which I absolutely have fallen in love with and have started reading. I pretty much want to be Julia and Yuriy.

And lastly, I love these thoughts from good old Mark Twain:

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

I intend to do exactly that.
