Mary Morrison got the travel bug early. She haunted the travel section of her local public library in California and wrote to the New Zealand consulate at age 12 to ask about immigrating there. They sent her a poster, which stayed on her bedroom wall for several years. She has traveled to over 100 countries seeking connection to people and places. She currently lives in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains of Western North Carolina and travels often to volunteer and enjoy new people and experiences

Generally this relates to politics, vaccines, covid tests, protests, etc. I don't remember feeling this depth of emotion about these things since I was a young person in the 1960's and early 70's. Of course there are two sides to everything, and it might be interesting to explore dynamics in a family or group of friends, and how these external stressors can rupture perfectly good relationships. Can we just turn everything off and avoid the outside world, or is it better to stay engaged and try to change things?(less)

I grew up with print journalism and the rapid switch to digital befuddled me. Just don't wait till you're 68, like me, to publish your first book! But it's never too late!(less)
