Artist's Comments

Just got back from ten days of crawling through rainforest in Dominica.
It was amazing.

EDIT: Okay, since some people have asked me, let me tell you a little bit about Dominica. It is not the same thing as the Dominican Republic; it's a little volcanic island in between Martinique and Guadelupe in the Lesser Antilles: [link] Down there on the right. Gorgeous, green, extremely mountainous country. The people there speak English and occasionally French Creole. Some of Pirates of the Caribbean was shot there, such as a lot of the cannibal scenes from the second movie.

What a delight this is! All this inventing, this producing, takes place in a pleasing, lively dream.

Haha, unexpected and mildly stressful situations in nighttime backwoods are what make life exciting! :D

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name.
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.

:devilish:

Super secret --> [link] <-- I dare you

It was awesome! I really enjoyed it! =D I mean, at one point, we stopped for a break and were looking up at all the stars, and a sattelight reflected the light of the sun on the other side of the planet directly into my eye. There was something awe-inspiring about that.

That's the greatest feeling in the world! I LOVE LOVE LOVE hiking! I go whenever I can, but I've never been hiking in a rainforest...

:plotting: Hmm... I must commence planning ...

It's really something! It's so diverse and wild. It's definitely something I would recommend, and it really lets you get out and experience the place you're in as opposed to just sitting on some lounge chair in a fake resort environment.

I totally agree. Whenever I travel, I hate to stay at the hotel. And when I hear people talk about bringing along the comforts of home while camping... :ohmygod: What's the point? If you're traveling or camping, the point is to GET AWAY FROM HOME! It's not fun unless you get a little dirty! :XD:

Where are your favorite travels destinations (places you have and have yet to go)?

YESSS hiking is the shiznat! :highfive:

Ok, so, at the risk of sounding stupid... where's Dominica? It sounds like a blast, wherever it is! :D
