Transitions.
It seems as though each time I change my lifestyle I have to go through a sort of transition period. I remember the first ever time I came travelling, arriving in Bangkok, I was afraid. I questioned what I was doing there, what was I looking for, did I come to far to look for …

Evolution, creationism, intelligent design and so on.

However, despite all this a major highlight of the journey was the feeling that the …
