wanderlust


the friday five...

1) If you had to move 100 miles or more to the north, east, west, or south, which would you choose, where would you end up, and what's so great about there?
i have no idea, because, honestly, i think that either direction would be nowhere, especially when chico would be considered point A

2) Do you have a favorite stretch of highway or byway for driving, touring, or wandering?
there is this one part of highway 6 between beechnut and highway 90 that i love; however, my all-time favorite place to drive is down main street in houston, between north or south braeswood and one hermann circle, right through the medical center and rice university, in the museum district. i just love the trees there. the perfect time to drive is on a bright day at around 930am with no stops, because the speed at which you drive and the way the light filters in through the trees...it's just really beautiful.

3) Are you happier to start a trip or return home?
start a trip. definitely.

4) Plane, train, automobile, bicycle, or foot?
train. definitely.

5) Do you overplan or underplan your travels? (Assume that "no" is not a valid answer.)
in terms of packing, i overplan. but, when it comes to activities and stuff, i underplan. i really don't like to plan too much, because i rather like letting the environment, people, etc., just dictate what i do. like, whatever i feel like doing, depending on what the day seems to call for.
