Speaking of esoteric travelling and travellers, tell us about the most exotic traveller you have ever met. This traveller may or may not be human! My ex-husband is an OTR truck driver. I loved going with him. I was able to visit all of the Lower 48 states. We saw some incredible things and met fascinating people. I still yearn to travel. I'd like to go overseas. My mother-in-law and her new husband travel all over the world. We never know where she'll end up. She called my husband on his birthday last year from Transylvania. I can imagine what it's like to be a world class traveller, but I'd love to experience it just once. I watch a lot of documentaries and dream of seeing those places in person. Sometimes, when I'm overwhelmed and feel like I can't take another day in the boring routine of my life, I get online and plan an exotic vacation that will always be out of my reach. It's therapeutic for me. After an hour of thinking about where I'll go and what I'll do, some of the stress has lifted. |

https://www.brainyquote.com/lists/authors/top_10_jules_verne_quotes My favorite Jules Verne quote- "We may brave human laws, but we cannot resist natural ones." I have spent many hours reading the great Mr. Verne. Rainy summer days often found me alone in my room, traveling through his wonderful worlds. I think if children are introduced to his works at a young age they will crave more of his fantastic voyages. Where else can you find such magical places and extraordinary people? |
