Tinman: What have you learned, Dorothy?
Dorothy: Well, I - I think that it - it wasn’t enough to just want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em - and it’s that - if I ever go looking for my heart’s desire again, I won’t look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn’t there, I never really lost it to begin with! Is that right?

Thank you for reading.

love forever.


The bad part is, I’ll always remember my five months with them but it (nor I) won’t leave such an impression upon them.

our last lunch together.

We travel for romance, we travel for architecture, and we travel to be lost.

My replacements got here Saturday night and are leaving tomorrow morning. Sure, Moree isn’t the grandest place but I don’t think it’s fair to not give it a chance! Grandma is coming the afternoon I leave to help out. If I didn’t want to come home so bad I’d offer to stay but I think I’m already mentally in Chicago!

WHILST all my friends at home are dressing up and going out for halloween this weekend, I’m sitting in my room crying over the slideshow/movie I’m making of my time in Oz. I’m leaving in 11 days! I’m going to miss my babies!

A man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.
