/ B O O K O N E / Happy February! In true to me #taraocity fashion, I start my three intentions of 2023 on the second month of the year.

Intention #1. No buying books for myself (thrift books included). This one is going to be a big challenge as I love a good book haul from a dusty vintage store.

Finished January with my copy of @jedidiahjenkins book that took me longer to read than it took him to complete his journey biking from Oregon to Patagonia. I bought this book at a crossroads in my own life. I mused over his journey to discover the real wonders to discover that lie within each of us.

And like him, it was worth the long journey.

Do you like travel narratives as much as I?
