Travel Mantra

"He who travels far will often see things far
removed from what he believed was  truth.  When he talks about it in the fields at home he is often accused of lying, for the obdurate people will not believe what they do not see and distinctly feel.  Inexperience, I believe , will give little credence to  my song."  (quote is believed to be by Hermann Hesse)

  2. I am still trying how to figure out where to post something. I believe Seargent Shriver had the idea first. He started the Peace Corps to have young and older American the opportunity to get that education abroad. I ran across a lot of them in Nepal when I was trekking. Those who do not travel only have the news to depend upon for their picture of the world. Those who have the opportunity but are too afraid to do so are missing out on a interesting world out there. Any thoughts?

    1. I think I came up with the title based upon many of the adventures I had in the 70s. I didn't make a big deal about them but upon reflection I decided they were pretty far out.
