After a journey...

After a journey... I feel slightly off.
I feel kind of like I had a lot of excitement and am now in a very stagnent place.
It's that time where Christmas is over, my relitives have gone, and I am left to answer: what comes next?

Right after I returned from Japan I got on a bus and headed to Vancouver for a few days. I went with a very good friend of mine to see Roger Waters perform The Wall live. It was a really good trip and I found it to be exciting, even though close to home. The process of just taking a journey is a really amazing thing, and I think what I will be doing with the rest of my time is taking some closer-to-home journies. Some ideas that I have are as follows:
- Go to a wilderness school to learn how to live in nature
- Volenteer within my city
- Go to music festivals in the states
- Move out! (not away... just out. A very close to home journey)

I guess I just need to do things that take up less fossil fuels so I don't feel guilty while doing them. I need to do things that help the environment more than getting there destroys it.

You may have looked at this post expecting to see me saying "I'm planning a crazy trip to Africa! or Europe! or the Middle East" but that is just not the case for me right now. I would LOVE to see those places, and hopefully some day I will, but I just need to find a more sustainable way to do that right now.

*FYI I started adding pictures to old posts... better late than never right?*
