![First panel:
Text: My dad said to me once that going to the supermarket can be an adventure if you are with the right people.
The drawing shows a man looking out at a lake. The mountains in the far distance are reflected in the water and sunlight is hitting his head.
Second panel:
Text: That was before the pandemic. It seemed like a sweet but inconsequential remark.
Mirroring the first image, a woman is looking out at a mountainous landscape, sunlight on her face.
Third panel:
Text: I thought of an adventure as something a bit more exciting than going to a supermarket
A view of a still landscape - no people here, just some rocks dotted around a lake, the same mountains in the background.
Fourth panel:
Text: It now turns out that I would actually really like to go to the supermarket with my friends. Or with my dad.
We have left the mountainous scenery. The young woman is lying on a sofa, illuminated by a streetlight, and looking into the distance, contemplating.](https://images.prismic.io/wellcomecollection/30ecf330-6f5d-4350-93f5-4ed5bf47c591_wellcome_adventure_full.jpg?w=1338&auto=compress%2Cformat&rect=&q=100)
