East-bound once again, I arrived yesterday at the family farm of my dear friend Kate, in Vermont, where I'm staying for a while. The Asia Adventure has officially concluded, although we'll still be throwing up some final posts with some more of Dana's phenomenal photos. My time with Dana - traveling and living together, massaging each others hands, bickering, hugging, splitting veggie dumplings, doing yoga in cramped hotel rooms, sharing glutinous rice balls, and even, on one occasion, cutting each others hair topless - this time has also concluded.
Dana remains on the west coast, and has a great summer planned. And I'm here on the east, back in the land of clover, thunderstorms, fireflies, cabot cheddar, maple syrup and blueberries on the side of the road. I'm hoping to get a job writing in NYC or Boston. It's a scary and an exciting time. I have no idea what my life will look like in 6 months, or even 3. But I'm so glad that I have the lessons I've learned, traveling with Dana and especially attending Agama. I feel good, at least somewhat more prepared for life, or at least more able to hold on while the roller-coaster dips and weaves.
It's been real guys, thanks for listening.
