I was very happy to catch up with a friend this week that I’ve known for over thirty years. She has been doing some medical teaching in Rwanda periodically, which seems both noble and adventurous. I also had a family member who left for Thailand this week, and friends who just returned from Costa Rica. In Northern Ontario, it’s quite common for people to travel at this time of year, to escape the cold briefly, feel the sun on their faces, shed the boots and coats, swim in the ocean. The winter can feel so long, starting in October and lasting, often, until May. The travel urge is understandable, and I love a week of sun in February, but should we do it? For work, for play, for any reason?

AuthorHi, I'm Karen. This space is a chance for me to get some of those notebook sessions out there: Motherhood, medicine, writers and writing, the state of the world. Non-published, sometimes non-polished, just a chance to open a discussion. Let me know what you think! Archives
