Within the context of this talk, Wandering is allowing yourself to see (being present) and then letting what you see guide you on where you go. That is, when you connect with all of your senses and all that is within you to the world around you, you will be making amazing discoveries and having an adventure almost every time you step out the door.
Wandering has been the basic guiding principle behind all of David Ryan’s books (Wandering in the Clear Light of New Mexico, 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Albuquerque, and The Gentle Art of Wandering). In this talk Ryan will use material from his books and blog posts to show you what happens when you adopt the mindset of Wandering and the discoveries you can make when you open yourself to the world around you. He will also describe skills that you too can use to develop your awareness so that you can adopt the mindset of Wandering.
