From 365 to 12: My Year, Distilled
🚢 Roam Sweet Roam
My World Cruise Adventure & Travel Archive
There are three types of people-those alive, those dead and those @sea--cruising around the world has been one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. It is one stage of my "re-entry" in Hotel @nyware, continuing my extended break from Normal Life again to travel the world on board another cruise ship.
I'm living my dream of PT-Permanent Travel, also known as "Mini Retirements". I haven't been everywhere, but it is no longer on my list. I "get it" now, this travel thing. On 12/12/12, Blogging is literature in a hurry-Write? Right! The quicker I go, the longer it takes, so it looks like I will be writing a few more posts on the subject.
As I document this adventure, this around-the-world travelogue, I say to myself "Roam Sweet Roam". Home is not where my heart is but where my computer is- I remain a digital nomad, where Anywhere becomes @nyware, location neutral, as there is no such thing as a bad piece of real estate when you use technology and social media.
Consequently, I call home a feeling not a place-I've never confused a street address for where I actually lived. My destinations have never been places, but new way of seeing things: the journeys themselves have been the destinations.
It has never been about resources, but more about resourcefulness. We're never too poor to buy our freedom. In fact, we are all "time millionaires" and when we choose to use this commodity, the less we put a cash value on travel, and the less we think that money is what we need to have an adventure and live, and the less we associate money with life in general.
