These are like the notebooks that show up in movies or stories but never in real life. They’re absolutely fascinating!

I really admire these people. Just quit your job, and take off like "I'm going on an adventure !" If I quit my job today, in a matter of weeks, I`d have enough money left to go to the park. On foot.
