Travel a way of life

I stumbled upon this blog: nomadderwhere.com. For the blogger traveling is a way of life, it's her passion and she knows it. She goes after it and I admire her greatly for it. As much as I LOVE to travel it doesn't compare. She inspires me to keep going for it, even though financially the situation sometimes seems like a hopeless dream.
I love it so much it's always shocking to me when I meet people who don't like, heck some of them hate it. It's the exploration of a new place that I've only dreamt of being in, so to realize it is truly a dream come true. It's the interesting interaction (a.k.a pantomime and wrecking of the language) I have with some of the people I bump into. It's when I push myself out of my comfort zone and love it because I tried something new. As much as I enjoy it though I like coming home to family and having a place of my own.
Words to describe my travels: awesome, amazing, awe-inspiring, awful, beautiful, breathtaking, formidable, frantic, horrible, impressive, mind-blowing, massive, nervous, moving, overwhelming, daunting, frightening, it's just plain incredible.

Girl, I really am flattered to see my blog recommended here on your website! I'm in Greece and for some reason your name shows up in the Greek alphabet, so I don't know what it is! Ha, but keep in touch, and I'd love to hear what you're all about. I saw Semester at Sea somewhere on your site, and I say WORD to that. I did S07. Thanks again, and great musings on your blog!

I'll have to look up the Greek abalphabet and see what that's about. I discovered SAS thru your site, didn't know such a thing existed. So thanks for that, the copmliment, and a new word to use.
