If I had to credit my wandering spirit to someone, that someone would be a fictional little boy and his stuffed tiger.
Ever since I can remember I’ve been religiously reading Calvin and Hobbes, and my wanderlust can be traced back to the final thing Calvin said to Hobbes before Bill Waterson had them sled off into the annals of history:
