I know you clicked on my blog and thought…what is a Sondern wanderer?

There’s a quote from a poem by author JRR Tolkien which really resonated with me. “Not all those who wander are lost.”

“Sondern” comes from a German word meaning “rather”. I would much rather be wandering. I have an extreme case of wanderlust.

Although, I’m not lost, I’m exploring. Wandering through life going in whichever direction I feel inclined. Over the course of 4 years, I’ve changed my career path five times, and my actual job three times.

We are on Earth for a short time. And that short time is no time to be miserable. I changed my career because what I was doing took an incredible toll on my mental health. When I finally snapped out of that fog, I realized I wasn’t going to stand for it anymore.

Taking matters into my own hands, I quit my job and found a better one that isn’t deteriorating me from the inside.

Then I wanted more. To share my experiences, life views, and other things with the world seemed like something I wanted to do. So I started a blog. Where I can wander and allow you to come with me.

I’m still trying to decide the direction I want for this blog. So join along, and see where this journey takes me.
