Hi Erkka,

Discovered your blog a few weeks ago, looking for URW-related stuff. I'm a big fan of the game, by the way, very good work both of you!

I'm writing from Panama, and I have a very different life from yours. Climate and geography are the least of the differences, it is the kind of society you are in, the bigger "climate", as to say, that shapes the soul. Yet I feel quite related to your way of thinking, only that I, for the time being at least, can't live in any wood, or jungle, or anything outside The Matrix. Working on that ;-)

I've had a similar experience to your night at the island, hiking here by the beach, looking out to the Pacific Ocean some years ago. Nature speaks to us all in the same language, and it is not English! :-)

As for me, I'm in the middle of a personal re-organization. Re-growth, maybe? Spring, at long last? I don't know but people like you inspire me. You are braver than many people, don't you know that? Anyway, thanks for the reading and all the best.

Regards,
U.
