Journey Of Rediscovery

Journey of Rediscovery

Where do you go when you are trying to find yourself, where does a journey of rediscovery take you? What would be on the ticket? Is it an express or a slow train with many stops, is there a destination or does the journey never end? I have no idea, I just know that the journey has already started and its time I got onboard with it. My last two months of hibernation on Bainbridge have allowed me to build the courage and energy to step out into the unknown. For now the ticket reads France with a small detour to Vancouver Canada on the way. It is a bittersweet start, part of my heart stays in Seattle and Bainbridge with my dear friends and those I consider family, yet the excitement and promise of the journey pulls me forward.

So on to Paris, just stopping to change planes in London I arrived on Friday afternoon to a lovely welcome from a very old friend Jose who I have not seen for 26 years. My dream for many years now has been to come to Paris with my camera and just explore and allow myself to absorb the ambiance without an agenda or plan. To get the chance to see France from the perspective of a local and to connect with people is just perfect. These photos are from my first days in Paris.

  1. Hey you…thanks for allowing us to come along on your adventure. The photo’s are amazing. It’s fun being able to take a peek into the adventure journey, so keep posting….

    Brooke is still hanging out in her cozy, warm space called “my belly” and I’m hoping she’s preparing for her journey as well – sooner than later?

    Hugs to you and love to your spirit and adventure!
