I've been trying to think of my favourite place on earth, and it's a very difficult one!
In January I flew from Portland Maine to New York, I got off the plane and something just clicked and everything felt right. Although I had left behind a previous chapter of my life I felt quite content stood in the airport smoking area.
I think being on that plane. On my wing seat, with the table up, window in full view of New York city skyline. I think that is my favourite place.
Looking at something beautiful from somewhere restricted, I felt more free than ever.
I think in all my life I'll never find that 'favourite' place. The closest I got was to see what could have been. I find that with everywhere I've never really been, but seen.
What could have been if I had just taken my suitcase and gone? Who knows. One day I might find out.
