I am on a wander. I am checking out a lot of places and seeing new sites. I am looking for a place where I can pitch a tent and live life on my terms. It gives me something to look forward to every single day.

@DocAndersen I am so sorry you missed a chance to us colorful language. Some times it soothes the soul.

Clearly you have never put up a tent, in the dark, in the snow alone. There is a heck of a lot of pitching, as in tossing things and not proper words around. As you may recall my Mom said we had to go outside and she meant it.

I also like words. I guess it's not surprising as I happen to like languages and linguistics.

@Writingghost Hahaha I share my words in my responses I've been told I have a poetic way of phrasing things. If I could be bothered, I'd do more

I think the dictionary can be a very fun playground.

I am never going to be a true wordsmith, and I will always be trying.
