The questions, as always, come from Sunday Stealing.
1.) What are 3 things on your Wish list and why?
I wish I owned a flat with a courtyard and a large bath tub so I can have a bath anytime I want.
I wish I could pack up and go walk the Camino de Compostella de Santiago - just because.
I wish I could live in New York for three months, so I could really find out about the place.

I miss some of the freedoms of childhood - that's about it.

What spare time? Read, sleep, exercise, watch movies, catch up with friends.

Friends, the fact that I have the capacity to use my brain effectively and that I have the tenacity to go after things I want.
5.) Would you rather be rich or healthy?
As much as having money is good, nothing beats being healthy.
6.) If you could go back in time would you and why?
That sounds a bit pointless. You can't change things.

Strawberries, mangoes and raspberries.

Have you seen the movie Martin Sheen and Emilio Esteves made about the Camino? Really a good film. I had never heard of it before.
The movie was "The Way" = check it out.
Goodness, the wombat is so cute! I've always wanted to visit Australia, but probably won't ever make it there. We were able to send our daughter the summer before her senior year of high school. She went for 3 weeks as a student ambassador with People to People. She got to do all the things I've always dreamed of...including cuddling with kangaroos, koalas, and swimming with some big fish named Wally at the Great Barrier Reef. I hope you get to visit N.Y.C. and see all the things you want to.
Wombats are adorable!
Hope you get that trip to NYC. And make it as a writer. Go! Go! Go!
I wanted to kiss all your adorable Australian animal snaps! I hope those terrible fires are out but then you are starting into Spring, and like Cali, you have a drought. Got me Fingers crossed for you all!
