Work at work is done & machine has been mothballed.
My dad has been in and out of hospital.
My dsungarian hamster and last pet has passed away today.
I´ll be flying to Ecuador in less than a weeks time.
Christmas is just around he corner ;).

Cannot complain about boredom.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”
Mark Twain, 1857

Hodophopbia = the fear of travel.

Mixed emotions right now, love travelling but am nervous because I don´t feel well prepared for the next journey, due to a shortage of spare time recently...

I guess it´ll all turn out allright, it always did yet ;).

And, another one by Mark Twain (and an all-time favorite of mine) "“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear”

Once I´m at it :
"Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first."
