What's your favorite place that you've ever visited?

Hmm.

Probably Tokyo.

Yeah, Tokyo is pretty amazing.

Although I am torn by these two contradictory impulses.

One is the impulse to go somewhere where I do everything all the time.

And I come back, exhilarated and exhausted.

And the other one is to go to a place where there is nothing to do.

So I mentioned the weird hippie summer camp I went to.

It was on an island and a lake in Eastern Ontario and the Thousand Islands.

And there was just like some canoes.

And you know, there's a memograph machine we published a newsletter.

There were hammocks and there was like a little volleyball court where we played hippie

cooperative volleyball where the goal was just to keep the ball in the air.

And there weren't any teams or scores.

And there was just nothing to do.

And it was great.

It was like, it was the only time in my life that I've ever sliced time into these big,

thick, generous slices where there was never a worry about what was happening next or what

I was missing.

And it was profoundly different from every other way I've ever lived before and since.

And I, in my dreams, I go back to the island.
