The air from up here

Holy ****** is a term I seem to be using frequently on this trip. Most of the time, I don't believe what I'm seeing. There's so much beauty here. It will steal your breath away. I haven't had the opportunity to travel to a lot of places, but I will definitely make the opportunity to come back here.

Since this short post at the top of this page, it has been 6 months since the amazing trip I took with Sally to Newfoundland. Wishing deeply I was back there. I thank Sally for allowing me to accompany her on the trip. She's truly a wonderful person, amazing photographer and a great mentor.

Since coming back to the states or rather back to small town living, it's been an adjustment. I'm the kind of person that can't stay in one place for long. That's wishing she were somewhere else all the time. I get back from a fantastic journey and I'm ready to embark on another. When my sister and I were younger, we would take family trips out West. I think there is so much beauty out there. Of course, when you've grown up on flat land all your life, seeing mountains for the first time is bound to make an impact.

My sister and I are complete opposites when traveling. This we found out the hard way. She would always get sick, like really sick when we went on family trips for a long period of time. She's just that kind of person that prefers home. I'm the kind of person that can't wait to get the hell out. I could live out of a suitcase for the rest of my life if I had the opportunity. When traveling with my family, I would get really depressed when we would start back home. My refusal to go resulted in nails into the carpet, screaming, crying fits in a desperate attempt to stay. Really, I wasn't that bad. When I would become distraught with the thought of leaving, my mom would always say, "this trip is over, but it just means we can plan for the next one." This would get me through.

That's just me. I want to see everything. Be everywhere. Experience. Experience Experience. Can I get a Amen?!? There are a lot of beautiful things in this world just waiting to be seen.

I want to be there.
