This is a narrative, travel blog, photo album of my life — picture albums of friends, family and personalities who have passed by. I must be a descendant of a nomad nation, because I got the travel bug at a very young age — the desire to travel flows through my veins. Traveling is my addiction. “There are no foreign lands, it is the traveler who is foreign” is one of my favorite quotes. There is something mesmerizing about stepping on a land you never visited before – being foreign in a foreign country, meeting people and learning their culture and traditions.
Travel humbles you. You really become aware of how other people live, how hard they work, how hard their lives are.
Anthony Bourdain
No matter what journey I take, whether it’s backpacking somewhere in Africa or a lazy vacation on a Pacific isle, it never looks or feels the same.
This is also the story of my 3 closest travel buddies (Hugh, Keith & Will) and all the tag-alongs and personalities we have met on our adventures. My travel buddies could have created this narrative but they have decided to use Facebook (which is just a passing fad) or other ways of recording their lives. We have tried the traditional blog method here –> my TravelBlog — but it doesn’t accommodate all those adventures with the characters (incl. family members) we have met along the way.
