One month, two continents, three countries...status update

Sitting here in rainy Cartagena, just wanted to post on the trip so far. I am not sure if it is the rainy weather, but I am feeling a bit of a lull in the enthusiasm for the trip. We have already accomplished so much, so I guess it is to be expected...you always feel a bit of a let down after doing something. On a long trip like this it is hard to keep motivated/excited/stimulated day after day. I can see why artists burn out or start repeating past accomplishments...maybe it's to avoid the fall. We need the mundane and unexceptional to be able to see the extraordinary. At least maybe I do.

However... that being said, I do keep getting a charge in each new place I go to...damn weather!

I have a few more posts to write about Colombia... and Friday off to Europe.

  1. Hi Patrick,

    This Dave Watson... Long time no see.
    I'll be traveling through Europe too from Dec 9th to End of Jan.
    Will be skiing at Val D'Isere (French Alpes) from Dec 10 to 17. We have room for one cool dude like you, feel free to join us for a few days.
    After that, I'll spent Christmas time with family in north of France, then going to Copenhagen.
    Where are you at the moment?
    Cheers
    David
