844 days, 20,256 hours, 1,215,360 minutes, or 72,921,600 seconds. That is the approximate duration of my world tour. I never wanted it to end and now, in a manner of speaking, I suppose it never has to. If you wish to go by country do so by clicking on one above. They are numbered in the order I visited them, more or less. If you enjoy reading about it even a tenth as much as I enjoyed living it then you will not have wasted your time. Grab a refreshing beverage, settle in a comfortable chair, and make a journey across the world, experiencing it as I did. Then get off your ass and check it out for yourself. You're not getting any younger.


A Place to Be 

by

Nathaniel Richards


Just beneath a calming sea
Churns a dark uncertainty
A war against life’s entropy
A soul without a place to be
‘To be or not to be’ you see
Propels our raw humanity
An existential shopping spree
To find that perfect place to be

 Universal Truth Decree:
I’m like you and you’re like me
Freedom springs from being free
We all just need a place to be

Sans fertile earth to plant thy tree
You have no possibility
A million doors without a key
All decked out no place to be

Take a breath, take a knee
Pray for cosmic potency
Can’t seem to solve that mystery
Of where and when I am to be
