Let's Rove

This is my first venture out of the US as well as away from home.
I will be attending the University of Edinburgh in the countries capital, my home base for 15 weeks. I hope for the blog to be like an anecdote I heard at a concert I recently attended. Glen Hansard, the headman of The Swell Season and star of the Oscar-acclaimed musical "Once" told his story of change and success as this: you come to a wall and try feverishly to break through this one problem that's hindering you from success. You try and try and eventually turn around and walk away, believing there are some things you can't change. You go on through life making little decisions and treading news paths. And finally, one unforeseen day, you find yourself on the other side of that same wall that you had tried so hard to break through. All it took was a unplanned walk around the world. So let’s rove.
