Thanksgiving!

Cheers to friendship and a life of uncertainty and promise!

Cheers to friendship and a life of uncertainty and promise!

Travel give you opportunities to learn, intimately, about people and places you otherwise wouldn't. It also gives you opportunities to to do things that you had never imagined doing, and in the process you become a person that you might have never imagined being!

The recent discovery and development of the vaccine against malaria is a welcome development for sure. It should be great news for the children of Africa. It SHOULD! Is it or will it be?

If you have been on the move most of your life, then you know there's something about being on the move...being on the road...something about traveling, exploring places, and reconnecting and connecting with people!

You can’t imagine what’s out there or who/what you have the potential to become...unless you explore the world!
You don’t know who, what and how you are until you lose your sense of who, what and how you are!

As pleasant as my visit to the US this time has been, re-connecting with old friends and making new friends, the tragedy unfolding back home in Nepal has been a constant preoccupation. While my uncharacteristic absent-mindedness from the start of the journey has made me part with a number of things of little value at different times, the earthquake has taken many that are irreplaceable.
