i’m wanting in riches, but with tremendous desire to step on local and foreign lands. damn if i’ll not find ways to make it happen. crossing my fingers….
current quote:
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the tradewinds in your sails.
Explore… Dream… Discover
–Mark Twain

me @ balicasag island, bohol [taken august 2008]
there's no special reason for the name except the love of putting my foot in front of the other until i'm breathless. traveling is a new found love for me. though i'm not blessed with beautiful-looking feet, i've gotten the habit of taking photos of my feet every time i set foot on lands outside of my beloved cebu. THANKS FOR VISITING!!! leave me a note or two. send it to vetlongwalks@yahoo.com or drop me a comment here. would love to hear from you!
BE WARNED: i'm no seasoned traveler nor a professional travel writer. contents here are purely accounts of my own travel experience.

This is so true. I feel like I am behind in things that I have always wanted to do but have not had the funds.
