Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

One of these is a lie, the rest are true!

I've ridden camels around the Pyramids in giza.
I've scaled Blarney Castle wall in Ireland.
I've raced yachts in Sydney Harbour.
I've had my wallet stolen by a dingo in the Australian Outback.
I've taken a fallucca ride on the Nile at sunset.
I've spoken to the Pope in Rome.
I've backpacked for 3 weeks straight in the Yosemite Wilderness area in California.
I've trimmed Bilbo's hedges in Hobbiton, New Zealand.
I've spent two weeks volunteering at a school for the Maasai in Africa.
I've run a midnight marathon where the sun never set.
I've swam in the crystal-blue waterfalls at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
I've bungee jumped off of the bridge where bungee jumping was first invented.
I've snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef.
I've gone dogsledding under the Northern Lights.

“The hills not only take humans away from a complex mode of existence, but they teach them that to be happy, it is only necessary to have food, shelter, and warmth. They bring them face to face with realities, and in doing so inculate a valuable lesson in the association of simplicity and happiness.
For these reasons any development that tends to bring into close contact with the natural order of things is a value to humankind, insamuch as it helps them to gain a sense of proportion. It is impossible for any thinking human to look down from a hill onto a crowded plain and not ponder over the relative importance of things. To take a simple view is to take a wider view. Whatever our beliefs, whatever our creeds from which we seek to extract happiness when we live on the plain, we find that things that have puzzled us are made clear when we stand on a hill. On a hill we are content to be content.
And so from the hills we return refreshed in body, mind, and in spirit, to grapple anew with life’s problems; for a while we have lived simply wisely and happily; we have made good friends, we have adventured well!”
