The art of wandering

Live small, be kind, follow the signs. This is where I’ve landed – this is my compass for life right now. I’m in Taiwan exploring. I came here without knowing anyone, and have met amazing people and gone to amazing places. 

And I’m following the mantra. Live small, be kind, follow the signs. Tai Chi is my biggest focus, and I have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to regularly meet with a bilingual Tai Chi master who is constantly challenging me to keep moving forward.

I seek out places to sit and observe, and I seek out people with stories, and I seek out adventures to lose myself and to find myself again. I write a journal as often as I can.
