Every day a saturday

There comes a point in travel when the sites, places, and other majesties you are seeing or visiting seems insignificant compared to what you are learning inside about yourself and others. Travel is about seeing yourself in another light and opening your eyes to a new world.

If you need inspiration for travel, there are a few good independent movies that will get you in full mode.

In the movie, "Last Stop for Paul", two guys set out for an adventure in search for answers while sprinkling ashes of their dead friend, Paul. This leaves them quitting jobs and leaving friends and family at home. They travel around the world with the full moon party in Thailand being their inspiration for the journey. They meet crazy people and embark on crazy adventures along the way. What they saw and did does not compare to what they learned about themselves and each other on the journey. A Map for Saturday, a movie that follows people who interconnect with each other around the world. A trip around the world, every day feels like a saturday.

Being here in Spain, I almost feel like every day is a Saturday. Even though my commute is about an hour and a half one way, its a job that doesnt use much energy or mental thinking. I use what i have known my entire life, English. Even the smallest thing I do or say in the classroom can bring a smile to a childs face which brings me back to one reason I'm there...
