scary woods

"Woods choke off views and leave you muddled without bearings.  They make you feel small and confused and vulnerable.  Stand in the woods and you only sense [the big space].  They are a vast, featureless nowhere.  And they are alive."

quote from Bill Bryson from his book A Walk in the Woods

encountered travelers

"The thousands of travelers I've encountered shared a common desire for continuous learning, a need for authentic experiences, and a deep concern for their role in leaving the world a better place.  That and a little sense of adventure are all that's needed to travel the world."
