Paris, Venice, Tokyo, Greenland, San Diego, Phoenix...

Where to go to? Travel. Backpack and bike or planes and a suitcase? Hotels and pillows or backseats and no sleep? Where is your favorite place to ponder? Ever indulge your wanderlust? Where did it get you? Did you find yourself or just find that wherever you go, there you are? The ephemeral "home"; is it in you? Does it pass through you in the images flashing on the inside of a trains cold pane? Do you pass through it? Have you ever really been home? Do you scramble to setup a bivouac and scatter like rats when you have a heart attack? Are you embedded in the matrix? Glued and subdued by the visually tumultuous light show in a box? Grounded?

There is a place I want to see.

A destination I long to be.

Where the brilliant sun shines down on me.

A cooling breeze sets me free.

Where is this place I want to see?

Anywhere but here.
