[travel] (North) America!

[mattbell]

I arrive in America tomorrow.

I've decided to go to the Canada part of America first and visit a friend in Toronto. It turns out there's a walk-across border crossing into the US at Niagra Falls. Once I get across, I'll make my way to the Buffalo airport and then get my free flight out.

I've been mostly excited about entering the next phase of my life upon my return, but today I finally felt a bit of sadness that my 4 1/2 months of world-hopping adventures are coming to an end.

Sadness at the end of such an epic journey is quite acceptable, I would think. Perhaps even a hallmark of it having been amazing and the right thing for you to do for yourself.

I wonder how the journey will impact your life going forward, and as others noted, how you approach your future career opportunities and environments. And will you come to see these current days not as an ending, but rather as a transition?

I look forward to catching up with you and comparing notes on so many things!
