And she’s planning and taking her own trips. Sometimes I think I’ll explode with pride; I think she’s a spectacular human being.
My wish for her now is that she’ll get the travel bug hard and deep. I am going to make every effort to push her off this continent many times over the next few years.
Here in the U.S. it is too easy to develop a narrow view of the world. We are excessively priviledged and shiny-new. I want her to see the good, the bad and the ugly… and gain a rounded and global perspective.
