Not one adventure in a whole day, " said Sniff, who was taking his turn at steering now the current was slower. "Just grey banks and grey banks, and not even an adventure."" I think it's very adventurous to float down a winding river, " said Moomintroll. "You never know what you'll meet round the next corner. You always want adventures, Sniff, and when they come you're so frightened you don't know what to do."" Well, I'm not a lion, " said Sniff reproachfully. "I like small adventures.

About This Quote

Small adventures can be even more exciting and entertaining than the big, life-changing ones. The important thing is to know what you want to achieve and set out to achieve it. Small adventures are fun and exciting because they allow you to be creative and innovate at your own pace. They also allow you to feel great about yourself.

You can never go wrong with small adventures because they’re not going to change the world. They’re not going to make you famous, but they will enable you to create a life of your own. Maybe it’s not the biggest adventure in the world, but it’s the one that matters most and gives you a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
