Ever since I was young, I have always enjoyed traveling no matter how near or how far. I am privileged to have had a job that could bring me places. The things that you would like to see before you die - Well for me it has always been to visit the 7 natural wonders of the World. I have circled the Taj Mahal and saw it lit up by the glow of the moon, the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy and the Grand Colloseum where mighty warriors once stood in Italy. There is still so much to see yet life is too short and time is always catching up on us. I usually travel alone, but having done that I as much as I can I share these experiences with people I hold close to in my heart. And, when they share the same excitement and awe that I do, I get the feeling of satisfaction. I stayed for many years in the developed city of Sydney right to the most remote places of Australia. What I gained is something that no book or television documentary can potray, I learnt that we can appreciate the value friendship whereever we go. When I was transfered to India, it was an absolute shock for me I must be honest. But it taught me and showed me how lucky and previleged we are to have the luxuries and comfort of life, when there are people in India who are so poor they dont even know where they were stay in the days to come...yet the always have a smile in their faces and thankful for even a cup of water that they have. My adventures have not only taught me new insights on things, but it has graced me with more tolerance, respect and empathy. As I travelled more, I realised that we do not need, souvenirs to remind us of the places we visit. We just have to have an open heart and keep those memories deep inside. Leave nothing but footprints, bring nothing back but memories..... Join me in my footprints of experiences and adventures. Tuesday, February 5, 2008
