*the German word "Fernweh" signifies an aching for the far-away, a painful longing to be far away. It is the inverse of "Heimweh" homesickness, aching for home.

A postcard from LAUREN GOLDSTEIN. Sent to me from Las Cruces, New Mexico / USA. Lauren attended the Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska 1999-2005. Thank you, Lauren for this postcard and your definition of your "Fernweh - good life"!
"Fernweh...the good life: To travel with a partner who makes me whole. As that anywhere we go we are at home - un slot canyons of Utah hiking in red and orange light, on the rain-slick streets of Seattle, on bar stools at the best breweries, 30,000 feet above in a 147 bound for our next destination" Lauren Goldstein.
