On Exploration...
The great explorers of the past set out into uncharted waters of the world in search of…well, whatever they found. This is the great promise of exploration, the philospher’s stone of finding new lands, new people and whatever else you may find. The creative explorer does the same thing, trying things simply because they have not been tried before.
