I make a big cup of coffee, then spend at least a couple of hours gazing out at the sea. Whether on beach or cliffs, the verandah where I'm staying or a restaurant with a wonderful view (Kuyaba's birds-eye table for example), there's something about watching the water that calms me and places me in a great state of mind.

On the last full day, I walk for a couple of hours - again, beach or cliffs depending on where I'm staying - and try to notice the little things along the way. Sometimes even when I've stayed for 3 weeks I get so busy seeing old friends, making new ones, and enjoying travel mates that I forget to take time to enjoy those things about the environment that I truly miss when I'm back home.
