Exotic places do not a well-lived life make

"I used to think that going to the jungle made my life an adventure. However, after years of unusual work in exotic places, I realize that it is not how far off I go, or how deep into the forest I walk that gives my life meaning. I see that living life fully is what makes life – anyone’s life, no matter where they do or do not go – an adventure."

– Maria Fadiman, Geographer, ethnobotanist and National Geographic Emerging Explorer. (Thanks Jon Meyers!)
