Yeah

... 'cause the natural world is very developed, and it's, [chuckles] it's very complex actually.
13:11
Uh, a lot more complex than we take, you know, we take it for granted all the complex ecosystems and, uh, biodiversity that happens in nature, and even the other systems, geomorphology, hydrology, um, you know, everything.
13:28
But getting back to your question, Pete, I definitely think, uh, longer journeys for me, uh, one, are often a reset.
13:36
You know, they take us away from our normal routine, and they give us an opportunity to slow down and reset, and, uh, often we get to connect with that place in a different way, and we get to see the nuances of that place, whether, you know, it's the running water or the mountain peaks that we're passing, um, day to day, or the sunsets, the sunrises.
14:03
I think all those things re-energize me, and then it's the relationships with the people, uh, as we're journeying.
14:11
You know, you get time to have conversations and get to know people in different ways, um, and hear their stories, and also connect and form a story with that place as you're journeying through it.

Uh, Foxy, could you perhaps share with the listening audience, uh, some remarkable outdoor adventure moments from your times working in those international schools?
