100 words for Wanderlust
It’s a bit wanky… I hadn’t realised how hard it is to write a completely compelling 100 words
The Atacama Desert is lunar. From the pale, potholed earth to the dry air that robs your lungs and the strange awareness of absolute isolation, I feel like an astronaut taking their first steps into an alien world. Sandy mountains claw at the sky- a sky where no clouds ever form, a sky which makes this desert the driest in the world. Watching the stars through giant telescopes in an observatory, we see how the otherworldly desert fits into the universe. It’s a cold, clear night, perfect for gazing through the glass roof of the sky to the lights beyond.
