Coming home after touring

IMG_0323
Sometimes it feels really good coming home after being on a tour. I'm a person who likes travelling, and I think that one of the reasons for me being a musician is the travelling part, and sometimes I feel that I could go on travelling for ever; Seeing new places, meeting new people, playing good music, learning new ways of doing things, learning new music, eating good food from different places and most of all getting your brain working from meeting all these new impressions. Go with the flow, reflecting, thinking new thoughts I didn’t know I had.

My mother (who probably has travellers in her family), have been moving all her life, she has been moving so many times that she has lost track of the numbers of apartments and houses she lived in. But me - I like travelling, not moving, and I like to live at the same place, one place, not moving. Leaving this solid spot for touring and working and then have that same place to return to, coming back.

So even if I really like travelling nothing can beat the feeling of coming home after being away for a while; taking of your shoes, putting on a big sweater, sit at the kitchen table with your legs crossed, reading the morning paper and drink your own coffee, while listening to the sounds around you that is so familiar and makes you feel at home.
