So much of my life and blog is devoted to this concept. Be present in the moment, remembering to take in all the beauty and wonder even in the ordinary! Take off your shoes and wiggle your toes in the sand. You have a new year ahead of you.. make the most of the small moments.
Happy 2017!
Why did I not comment on this last time I saw this post on Twitter?! Obviously I’m going to agree entirely … :p
In a general sense of course, feeling ‘free’ and ‘vulnerable’ is exactly the sort of thing that opens your eyes to whole new experiences, and a completely different way of sensing the world and how others feel. Even if you’re only ‘barefoot’ in a metaphorical sense, that way of travelling the world, rather than staying in your own protective ‘bubbles’, is surely to be welcomed and aimed for!
I love the name of your blog!! A kindred spirit!
Haha thank you 🙂 Yes, it looks like it! My comment is pretty much a summary of how I travel, and what i hope to gain from my travels, so it’s very much the same theme 🙂
I’ll say though that the small stones on the road my profile pic is taken on were a tad painful … :p
