HOW TO TRAVEL LIGHT FOR MODERN NOMADS, TOURISTS AND THE DISCERNING MINIMALIST WEIRDO. Part 3 of 3

  In 2009 I packed a suitcase, a small backpack and a carry-on and left my native country to live a life with no fixed territorial boundaries, indefinitely. In 2010, I realized, maybe two suitcases would be a good idea. Essentially what those suitcases and carry-ons contain is all that I own, other than some remnants in my parents' basement and that which I buy / need at any given location and that which can be disposed of / given away before I embark onwards. I believe in contemporary airport terms, this could be expressed as, at any given point in time, I have to condense the belongings of my life to approximately 66 kgs or 144 lbs of stuff.   More on that, including … [Read more...]

Culture Shock: 7 Brain Sweeps Returning To North American Life

June 29, 2012 By Laura Dal Farra Leave a Comment

detroit-river-fireworks-2012

Thirty days in North America and the following squished and/or continues to squish my brain: 1) Despite spending the month of June split between southern California and the most southern city in the entire nation of Canada, during the day, I've been caught running around in jeans, a shirt, jacket, scarf and gloves while others run amok in beaters (vests) and shorts. In air conditioned homes I sip hot water to not have to walk around in a blanket. I currently sleep in thermals. 2) I dug deep, got in touch with my internal cheeseball, made peace with her and began to (occasionally) wear sunglasses indoors. My brother, with whom I was crashing with in California returned home at … [Read more...]

Follow Your Dreams: JUMP WITH YOUR EYES OPEN

October 26, 2011 By Laura Dal Farra 4 Comments

    My eyes were swollen as were my lips. Cracked. Eczema ridden. Itching. The irritation made speaking difficult and caused tears I couldn't control to fall from my eyes and further irritate the red, scaling skin. My joints hurt. I couldn't control my weight despite eating a clean, organic filled diet and training regularly. I had lost my body and felt with it, the fundamental right of control over my destiny. It's difficult to follow your dreams when you fear that which you can't identify. That which others say doesn't exist.   I had no power over the physical characteristics of my suffering as I didn't know the cause. I had visited a number of doctors, of … [Read more...]
