The Blue Gnu migrates....

June 7th, 2011
To all my followers and friends - :)

Thank you all for your continued support, encouragement and comments along my first half of my 365 journey. The journey continues........

I'm an experience collector - I'm hopping on a plane today to head north.

I will be taking my daily pic but I'm not sure at present how frequently I'll be able to log on with my netbook.

I apologise in advance if I comment less or if I upload a couple of days at time.

I'm off to volunteer for 7 months - starting in Spain (conversational English to business people), farm work in UK and housekeeping/hotel work in Boston. Besides the volunteering I will also be doing some sight seeing in each place, hiking (including a part of the Apalachian Trail and Grand Canyon - hopefully) and spending a little time with friends and family in Texas before heading back to the UK for Christmas.

Returning home to Cape Town on the 4 January.


My friend Cath gave me this quote I'd like to share with all of you.


The Truth of wise teachers and great books are gifts.

The truth you discover through reason is a treasure,

but the most rare and precious jewel is the truth of experience.

~ Alberto Villoldo ~


See you all on 365 - wishing you all the very best - keep focused, keep shooting, keep playing.

Cheers - The Blue Gnu (Kim)

Travelling and experience gathering most be a very Capetonian trait. The only other person from that city I've ever interacted with has the same sort of "syndrome" as you do, leading her to travel from the UK to Chile, and from the US to Australia, and many points in between. An admirable way of life and I wish you safe and rewarding travels along the way! Cheers!
