Yes and I'm with you, actually. I like visiting the desert, but I don't feel a 'spiritual' connection there in the same way as I do when I see water and trees. In some ways, though, it makes a person work harder to see the beauty and feel the connection, so maybe there's something to be said for that.

I lived overseas for more than 10 years. My family and I were 5 minutes for the beach and about 1 hour from the mountains. We loved being surrounded by natural beauty.
But I appreciate your point about needing to look harder and having to work to make the connection. Sometimes we are so tired we need to be refilled and refreshed by nature. Sometimes we need to be challenged by it and go to a place (internally that is) that is a bit uncomfortable.
