I have always had the wander lust. Up until recently in my life, I always seemed to be going somewhere. I actually ran away from home the first time when I was five years old. My dad though it was funny until he saw me walking down the road a couple blocks away, not turning back, and he had to come get me.
I hitchhiked across Canada when I turned 21 and came back about six years later. Later on, I started traveling for business. I did about 120 business trips to the USA, about 30 or so in Canada and spent 7 months overseas in Hong Kong, Germany, Turkey, with a few brief stops in Portugal, Belgium, and the Netherlands. All of this was great,
