Within Rhodian Hills and Pine Forest
Driving on through Rhodian countryside – inching higher up up, as paths get lost amidst the parched hills and buzzing pine forest – the wilderness becomes primal, more authentic. As we move away from the predictable coastal resorts, venturing out from the rushed tourist trail, it is possible, a must maybe, to discover elusive hidden gems which are so often missed. Perhaps this is as it should be, as forgotten treasures can be allowed to remain peacefully in their exquisite slumber, to evolve then undisturbed.

The Midnight Madness
Amidst the quiet hum of the small town of Willow Creek, nestled beneath a canopy of ancient trees, there stood a carnival—an ephemeral spectacle that materialized only under the veil of night. Within its labyrinthine confines, where the scent of cotton candy mingled with the faint whispers of the wind, there lay a sinister secret—a ghost train that traversed the darkness, its passengers destined for a journey beyond the realms of the living.
Italy: My Solo Adventure In Florence
Italy had been on my list forever. It was like that crush you can’t help but daydream about. So, last year in May, I finally decided that it was time to turn those daydreams into reality and I booked my first solo trip to Italy. There were going to be a lot of firsts including this one being my first time to a new country altogether by myself. I had already booked my tickets to Milan while I was on a trip to Wales during Easter. So, that meant that I couldn’t back out now. I wasn’t going to anyway because I was too excited to go there!

On a nice warm summer day, it’s close to 80s, with a breeze but it’s the most comfortable place to be on Earth. Traveling to Luxemburg, WI, has been a family tradition since I was a small child, and I couldn’t have asked for a more rewarding trip.

READ PART II HERE: It was 2020–nearly a year after my trip to China and my first introduction to Andrea. We stayed in contact with each other long after the program ended and had gone our separate ways. We spoke every day and made plans to visit each other. In January, I finally bought my ticket. In February, I left for London again, this time alone. I would hop on a train from there and meet Andrea in Oxford, where she had just started her Master's program. I was to stay with her in the dorms for three weeks and then travel to her home in Norway together and spend a month there.

Title: Wealthy Goddess Retreat: A Journey of Self-Discovery and Empowerment In 2021, my inaugural journey by air for a vacation marked my first leisure trip in 26 years.

As I awaited my Lyft driver, eager anticipation filled me for the transformative journey that awaited me.

Author's preface: This is chapter one of a five part series which can be found here. “Where will you be heading into the gulch at?” asked the National Park Service Ranger stationed behind the counter at the Escalante visitor center upon hearing our request for a backcountry permit. When my companion Kat replied “40 mile trailhead” the old woman’s head snapped up sharply and she fixed us both with a hard gaze. “You do realize the trail there is a 45 degree descent. Are you both capable of handling that, with packs?” We nodded as she gave us the once over, appearing satisfied with what she saw she handed over the permit and we turned to leave. A 45 degree descent sounded challenging but that was exactly the reason we had made the long trip out to the Utah desert, to test ourselves against some of the most difficult backpacking conditions to be found in the United States and prove our mettle. At the time I was grateful for the heads up and warning, later I would curse the old woman for what she neglected to tell us. The 45 degree descent into the gulch was a one way trip, it simply was not possible to return up out of the gulch the same way.

Introduction The last time I was in Morpeth I walked past an antiques place in an imposingly impressive building and liked the sign that said "Dogs are Welcome, and humans if they are well behaved" or something akin to that.

READ "PART I" HERE: My third adventure outside the United States was to Putian, China (the second was with a college friend to London for Spring Break—a unique choice that I'll write about later). It wasn't exactly a study abroad opportunity, but I was still in college, and a philosophy professor recommended the experience to me. She knew I was interested in Eastern philosophy, focusing on Daoism, and thought a trip to a Buddhist temple in China might be up my alley. She was right.
The Study Abroad
In 2016, I had never left the country. I was entering my second year at Eastern Michigan University after taking a four-year break from college and had only spent time in the United States on short trips. I was studying international affairs, so studying abroad was required at some point in my academic track. There were a few options, but a class I was taking through the winter semester offered a relatively inexpensive two-week spring trip to Guatemala, and given the content of the class, it seemed like the best fit for me.
