Is this it? Discovering Yellowstone National Park Oct 8, 2011
I am not a souvenir collector.
Fridge magnets of the Hollywood sign and Eiffel Tower key chains are just not my thing. I rarely even buy postcards these days.
Travel is a great love of mine, but I love being at home also.
There is something heartwarming about being in a space that you can call your own. And although coming home after travel is often challenging, once you make that initial adjustment being home is its own kind of bliss.
I always find it staggering that someone can write an entire book about a single, simple topic and make is absolutely fascinating.
The skill is not in filling 300 odd pages about one subject (most of the literate amongst us could probably do that if we put our mind to it), but that they have actually made it interesting.
Charlie English does this in his book The Snow Tourist and he does it so beautifully, so elegantly, that I had trouble putting it down.
