After returning from a six week holiday and slowly trudging my way through my emails, I’ve stumbled on this post and here is what I need.
- More travel
- to continue learning
- right now more sleep and to not be in the office for 3 more hours!!

Much of my happiness is a result of making wise decisions and choices and understanding and accepting the consequences (definitely not always easy). You can have all the air/water/shelter/food/TVs/cars/friends etc in the world, but if you make dumb decisions/choices happiness will still evade you. At least that is my experience so far….and oh, I shouldn’t forget that foot massages and chardonnay also put a smile on my face!

I vote that you turn up the ‘family’ hotplate as we would love to see more of you! The spare room eagerly awaits you anytime you can find some time. xxxxx

That’s another great post on this theme. I agree with (but struggle with) all of it!

Here are some other things that I need to keep me happy:
- Mental challenges
- Natural beauty (eg a sunset or a view)
- As well as time with others I really need time by myself
- Space and equipment to cook with
- Dear friends (ie not just people to talk to, but people to share with intimately)

Comment on Film Review: The Way by Virginia

I loved this film – maybe because of the scenery. The Camino is on my travel “to do” list – although I did do a cheat’s version of it back in 2002, heading to Santiago de Compostela by bus and train from Portugal. One generous hostel keeper even let me stay a night for free at his lodgings. Santiago’s a beautiful medieval town, and of course, it’s overrun with pilgrims wearing their shell totems. But there’s a great energy there! Next time, I’ll do it the hard way!

Comment on Life and stuff: The etiquette of crying in public by Kate

Once I had in emotional breakdown in the detergent section of Rite Aid…I can’t remember why exactly. I had just failed my drivers test, I was stuck downtown in the winter without a coat or a ride, my dad had yelled at me, a bunch of dumb things like that. I just started bawling and I tried to buy tissues but my credit card was denied so I walked to the bus station bathroom and camped out there. It was really embarrassing and nobody asked me if I was ok or even looked at me. A few people glared actually.
If I saw someone crying in public I would probably offer them a tissue and try to be nice. The worst is the fluids running down your face…

Elly, while you may find the majority of the North Terrace campus houses the University of Adelaide, a fair portion does belong to UniSA including the iconic Brookman Building.

Hi Holly,

A room made of salt? That sounds interesting. I’ve stayed in a few odd places too and it’s fun experiencing both ends of the travel accommodation spectrum!
