Going through old ephemera, I’m struck by how much I crammed into trips and experiences.. consuming them rather than allowing for space and pauses. I suspect that it was a cover up and avoid other discomforts. And while I still enjoy being in motion, I’d like this next chapter to move away from consuming.. disguised as sampling many things.. to savoring and enjoying. Going to one place and connecting with it instead of speeding through three or five.

How do you engage with travel? What makes a good trip for you?
