Somedays I wish I could just pack my suitcase and head off on another adventure around the world. What is stopping me? Lots of things...but the thing is this--you never know where life may take you. I mean I never imagined that one day I would live in Oregon, and here I am.I have always been an adventurous person. Growing up I was not afraid of the outdoors or of getting dirty. I found myself rolling down hills inside a rubber garbage can (for fun), repelling out of my second story window of my house on a homemade rope made entirely of belts (my mother finally caught on when she saw us coming in the house but never going out), riding dirt bikes on the farm--and sometimes on the roads when we weren't supposed to, taking off to Germany between my freshman and sophomore year of college on a summer study abroad all by myself, with only one semester of German, two HUGE suitcases and a German phrase book, and the list goes on and on.
Lately life feels so routine; something I promised myself I would never let happen. So what am I going to do about it? Time to shake it up a bit. Adventures...here I come.
