13.5.10

my north and my south.


I'm headed home
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
That home is a place
That will ever be the same...

-Jon Foreman, "Southbound Train"

First, let me say that J.F. is a lyrical and poetical genius. I was listening to this song tonight, and I don't have much to say on it. I'll let it speak for itself.

I'm going back to Arequipa in a few days after a small and refreshing sabbatical in Lima. I then spend a couple months in the South before I head north: America.

Here we go. The countdown begins. There isn't a countdown to "what's next" still. Rather, the countdown begins on having to leave a new home for an old one.

I'm betting on not settling down quite yet. So for now, and during the upcoming transition time, my home is North and South.
