The Nomadic Life: Boxed In

August 6, 2012 By Laura Dal Farra 1 Comment

 

The process of condensing.

 

What little stored in my childhood basement. In boxes.

 

The imperative is to edit. To rid of all that is climbed through daily in search of meaning.

 

Flawlessly. Without distraction.

 

Cut the extraneous until that which remains is Beauty.

 

This is how I see the nomadic life.

About Laura Dal Farra

After a six month adventure training Muay Thai in Thailand in 2007, Laura Dal Farra returned to her native Canada, sold most of what she owned, and boarded a plane set for Bangkok alone. She spent the next 3.5 years training in traditional Muay Thai gyms, pushing her limits, and embracing the unknown. Realizing little was being written on the subject, she began to blog about it. Laura Dal Farra is the founder of Milk.Blitz.Street.Bomb.
