Wednesday 09/27/23 Another day of travel. I checked out at around 11 a.m. and then waited because my train didn't leave until 12:34. I thought... but when I arrived at the...

104 days, 17 hours, 40 minutes and one second then everything is over. Ok, that sounds pretty dramatic at first. But how is it possible that so little of my time here is left???...
