SCREAMING, RUNNING AROUND, LAUGHING
This is such a phenomenal place to be. I'm an adult busy working, but the little boy in me is screaming and running around and laughing // Chris Hadfield, via twitter on February 13, 2013.
Chris Hadfield is a Canadian astronaut currently working aboard the International Space Station, orbiting earth. Let's just take a minute to first think about the fact that someone is out in space, tweeting back to us pictures of the planet.Second, I feel like this is what I want everyone to be able to say about their work. Right? I hope I am always able to stop and in the midst of what Dave & I do and realize that I am a lucky one, that the little girl I once was would be screaming and running around and laughing right now if you told her this what she would grow up and get to do. It doesn't come without a fight, but I really believe it's there for the taking for most of us.For more that will make you feel proud to be a Canadian, watch Chris Hadfield (from space) & the Barenaked Ladies (from earth) perform together, yes together, HERE.Ever since seeing that I've been looking up at the sky more... and I just wanted to share :) Next up, Dave and I are going to start sharing some of the things we did on our roadtrip in November, so please stay tuned for that! Excited about this guys. Thankful to all our gracious hosts who let us stay with them & document them and now letting us share a bit of their stories. More soon! xo, jenn
