Flying to Paris then Dublin

I'm at the airport preparing to board Air France to Paris then on to Dublin and later to Germany. Exactly one year after my travels to Nepal (and China), I'm back to being a world traveler. How grateful I am! I love traveling, even when sleep deprived, inconvenienced, or hungry. My philosophy? You give up control and predictability when you walk out the door (remember Bilbo from Lord of the Rings?). It's a tradeoff, like high risk, high gain. Give up control and anything can happen to you. Isn't that worth it? Face discomfort and gain experience.

Traveling alone is part of that bargain. Risk loneliness but maybe meet some strangers. I love adventure.
