The Wandering Soul

(photo by Ruth L.)

There's nothing that inspires wanderlust quite like staring at your four office walls. Or, in my case, no walls as I sit in what can be best described as a hallway. Well, one wall, if you're splitting hairs...

So, where to go? Or to dream of going? The world is so full of possibilities, so over whelmed with mysterious places that to choose one seems to do a disservice to 1,000 others. But a girl's gotta start somewhere. Should I be fanciful? Perhaps a trek through the Middle East...

Yes, these destinations are magical. But for the past several years, my husband and I have been discussing, inventing and imagining a European journey. It began quite modestly, with a plan to see some friends in London, and has blossomed into a journey through France and into Spain... We're still not sure when this trip will happen, but when it does, I will be magical...

Where do your wanderings, both real and imagined, take you?
