I'm fired up on:

taking a new walking route to work and back each day, photography of odd objects/people/unexpected situations, snowboarding, running, meeting new people, haikus, wine tasting, filling my passport before it expires, teaching my Mom how to IM, not having to drive a car, people watching on the nyc subway, people watching in general, painting my room, buying puffy coats, jewelry design, keeping in touch with at least one person from each country I've been to.

Travel style:

It depends on the length of travel and location. I typically am a solo traveler as I like to be on my own agenda and find you meet more people/see more things and places than you would with a group/partner. I do however love meeting up with a close friend in an obscure part of the world after a few weeks of alone time. It's always nice to share those experiences with ones you know well and a familiar face is sometimes all you need after a couple of days on Khao San Road.

Sports I do:

Halo funny woman named Jill from Linden! I think of you every time I crunch down on a walnut. CRUNCH. Missing you! I finally grew up (a little) and left our college town. It was weird. Sad but Happy.

the puddle of Australia is great.

so cool when you stumble upon something like that.

Hey,
I know what you mean about the travel bug. Australia must be a lovely place, from what I hear about it...one of my old childhood neighbor moms has moved there and is soon getting married! Any marriage in your plans? ;-)
I think I need a chiropractic adjustment soon...not only can sports mess you up at times, but stress does it all the time! Take care!
