[BAVI World Tour!] Beauty and the Beast

[Baruch (Brad) Roter]

Chugging down the tracks, following the Nile from Luxor to Cairo, feeling a sense of relief as we move away from the extreme chaos, filth and sensory overload of an Egyptian city.  We take comfort in the timeless beauty of people working the rich brown earth by hand, growing food as they have for millennia. 

The train ride is a constantly changing view from lush green fields speckled with palm trees, donkeys, sheep and farmers juxtaposed by blocks of crudely constructed, tightly packed, often decrepit brick buildings.

We can’t help but notice how peaceful we feel when looking out at the green fields and the internal constriction we experience when we feel far removed from nature. That’s why we chose to move from Seattle to Vashon Island. Since we have been traveling through so many cities, we realize the importance of creating opportunities on our journey to connect with nature.
