Glad to see that you met my friend Becky. I admire your journey and am thrilled to see you end in my hometown of Portland OR. I will be sure to spread the word there. For some inspiration, here is an excerpt from "Dharma Bums" by Jack Kerouac: "I see a vision of a great rucksack revolution thousands or even millions of young Americans wandering around with rucksacks, going up to mountains to pray, making children laugh and old men glad, making young girls happy and old girls happier, all of ‘em Zen Lunatica who go about writing poems that happen to appear in their heads for no reason and also by being kind and also by strange unexpected acts keep giving visions of eternal freedom to everybody and to all living creatures..."
