Along with the prior post from today, some people have been posting quotes in the group. I like a lot of them and want to save them all in one place, so this will be a constantly updating post. SORRYBOUTIT. (also, I've been saving some of these on stickies so I'm not really quite sure where I've found all of them. Not trying to step on anyones toes if they're their own proper words, actually sorry about it (not sarcastic.)

Travel isn't always pretty.
It isn't always comfortable.
Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart.
But that's okay,
The journey changes you...
It should change you.
It leaves marks on your memory,
On your consciousness,
Your heart,
And on your body.
Take something with you,
Hopefully you leave something good behind.
-Anthony Bourdain
