I really cherish having had timeout to drive out of town. Clean mountain air, Drawing and taking pictures, curious kids peeking into your drawings, natural home cooked food with local families, their dogs walking with you alongside a river and through forests, hiring an old bike and exploring the place, the intense pleasure of writing about all this- are now luxuries. In fact this is the real luxury, not things anymore. One can always have stuff which will always be mass produced. Its timeout to places that will really matter now. And I have great friends I can do this with. As environment degradation chomps into natural heavens, these beautiful locations will become even more scarce. Archived here are some travelogs in the past-

This is one of those moments when I am looking back. Ouch, this hurts.
time out needed to pack a slr and a sketchbook in a rucksack, sit astride a royal enfield and ride off to anywhere
