wherever my feet take me

[rusita preciosa]

Is there a saying in your language that mean "going/wandering without a plan or a specific destination"? In English it involves feet; in Russian - eyes.

English:
wherever my feet take me

Russian:
куда глаза глядят /kuda glaza gliadiat/ - wherever eyes look

How about your language?

Мы говорим почти как по-русски: където ми, ти... видят очите.

 

[jazyk]

In Portuguese:
aonde (os) meus pés me levarem - wherever my feet take me
aonde me der na telha - lit.: wherever it gives me on the tile. I think the tile here refers to one's head, i.e. following one's own head, wherever one's fancy takes one.

whereever my feet take me= saan man ako makarating/ saan man humakbang ang paa ko

I don't think we use the literal expression: 'waar mijn voeten mij ook brengen'. I'd say: 'waar mijn weg ook heen leidt' (wherever my way/path leads to). But I wonder whether it really means the same: it is like a spiritual answer, accepting whatever happens. Is it like that in your mind, M?

In the more practical meaning I know of something funny in my dialect: 'op goed-valle-'t-uit'. literally: in the way of 'Good may it turn [lit. fall] out'... Something like 'op goed geluk (af)': towards good luck, or maybe more precise aiming/ hoping for good luck.

That reminds me, we say almost the same, «όπου με/μας πάει ο δρόμος μου/μας»
(o'pu me [1st p sing]/mas [1st p pl] 'pai o 'ðromos mu [1st p sing]/mas [1st p pl]) lit. "wherever my/our path take me/us". An expression which - I agree - declares some sort of fatalism.
A slightly different expression is «γιά όσο βαστάνε τα πόδια μου/μας» (ja 'oso vas'tane ta 'poðja mu [1st p sing]/mas [1st p pl]) lit. "for as long as my/our feet stand up to" (which manifests strength, faith in our abilities); e.g. "Aren't you tired of trying to get this job?"
"No, I'll keep trying for as long as my feet stand up to"

In Turkish:

Rüzgâr beni nereye götürürse ... (Wherever the wind takes me.)

Czech:

...kam mě oči povedou a nohy ponesou.

...where [my] eyes will lead me and [my] feet will carry [me].
