This scene contains items one might have for a journey. A thermos, a bag, a journal and pen to make notes and sketches of what is experienced on the way. The photo of the mountain is a reference to the mountains represented in the Fool card. The paper cranes represent the hope for peace and wisdom along the way and a safe return home.

The Fool Tarot card represents new beginnings, having faith in the future, being inexperienced, not knowing what to expect, having beginner’s luck, improvisation and believing in the universe.
