“There is no Sleepy Hollow on the Internet, no peaceful spot where contemplativeness can work its restorative magic. There is only the endless, mesmerizing buzz of the urban street.” Nicholas Carr, from The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains (New York: Norton, 2010)

Ride to a new place
For me, driving to a new place with the anticipation and excitement of something new and undiscovered is a feeling like no other. Watching the scenery fly across your passenger side window and wondering what the new location has in store for you is something that can only be experienced when you travel. I love watching the approaching mountains get bigger and bigger as we drive through them, and seeing the different wildlife you dont usually see at home, or watching the ocean expand far beyond your eye can see. Scenery is often ignored on roadtrips because people are more focused on their destination, but when you take the time to appreciate the scenery you truly do develop a new outlook
