Late one night during a terrible time period filled with finals and not enough alcohol, I realized it was raining. I dragged him out to the porch and he had a cig. After awhile it got cold and he started walking inside. I grabbed him and took him into the rain. It was nice.

I first left the North American continent the summer after my freshman year of high school. We traveled to 5 countries- Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein. I stopped in France for a crossover flight, we originally had 16 hours in between flights and I was looking forward to scurrying around Paris… but my flight got changed and I ended up running from one terminal to another. Grr. The entire trip was incredible, and I’m going ANYWHERE as soon as I can. Salzberg was my favorite in Austria, I want an apartment there. I adore all of Italy, lovely people, cuisine, architecture and scenery. I’m studying overseas sometime too for college.
I’ve done this so many times with a very few great people. Not everyone is comfortable doing so, or even capable, so when you get the chance take it! I can talk about philosophy, religion, the end of the world, the universe, the supernatural… EVERYTHING that everyone else hates talking about, but only with a select few types. Sad, but I LOVE it when I can get it. There’s an indescribable connection that becomes shockingly real when you see the sun rising after a night of gasp... just talking. Only one warning with this one, obsession becomes a problem with the other party all too often. It seems that if they love your mind they have to love your body as well, it gets kind of annoying. But that’s not even something to complain about. Talk to as many people as possible, expand and improve your ideas then document them.
