I figure there has to be some sort of personality type or brain chemistry that makes you find things interesting, and I have more of it than others. I’m really interested in my own life right now, though I’m also fascinated by the lives of others. One of the things I like so much about travelling is meeting and re-meeting people who are different from me and really getting a chance to see what they’re about. Since I live in the country and mostly visit cities, the contrasts are often fairly striking. I’ve always been a bit of a “connector” one of those people who says “Oh, you’re doing X, you should really talk to my friend Y….” and yet at the same time, my little circuit here in Vermont is small and fairly contained. I wonder how this would be working without the Internet.<\/p>\n

Here are some people I met or got to hang out with. You can see why trips like this are so much fun. <\/p>\n
