Trying something different is also one way of learning new things especially in discover­ing and understanding of new places, people, food and culture. Of course, the process has to be governed with enough common sense and guided information be­fore the exploration starts. As an example, I personally find travel­ling as the most interesting and a quick way of learning about a certain place’s dis­tinct natural resources through leisure driv­ing. Good and relax­ing as well as refresh­ing to the critical pair of God’s gift of sight to pan around the place are bonuses to the long weekend break from daily routine.

Food is always part of every activity of a travel buff. A short visit in a small town local produce store will tell us about the crops and entrepreneurial spirit of the people. What drives these people to make overall life useful for today and the future? The answer is something that an enthusias­tic tourist should not be missed when going into the process of introspection, a personal obser­vation or examination of one’s own mental and emotional state, in relation to the environment.

Writing about a travel enthusiasts recent experience, I couldn’t help my jaw to expand downward when I heard the story of an urban practicing Geologist who decided to explore South Africa’s wild Safari forest. He happened to grab a nice, appetizing-look fruit eaten by the chimpanzees. He theorized that if the fruit is eaten by the chimpanzees, it can be eaten by humans. He ate the fruit and ended up in the hospital due to excruciating pain of the stomach.

Fortunately, local physicians were aware of the side effects of the fruit to humans upon ingestion. Luckily, they have available ‘inject able’ medicine to ease the effect of the ‘unfriendly’ enzymes to humans which were friendly to chimpanzees. Despite of numerous scientific researches establishing the similarities of chimpanzees and humans, still weighted 2% difference should be taken seriously.

Spring is about to reach it’s end, taking advantage of sunny long weekend brought us to explore the beautiful breathtak­ing sceneries of Oregon Coast. We heard our soul’s crav­ing for a quiet and re­flective mo­ments with a solemn the Passion of Christ and joyful celebration of Easter.
