                                            Better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times.

                            Wanderlust: n. a strong desire for or impulse to wander or travel and explore the world

 

             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.
