SOME JOURNEYS OF A LIFETIME: | Inle Lake Fisherman, Myanmar |
The only serious advice, I want to offer as a nowadays seasoned traveller:
just do it now, never postpone !
Let me quote ANA M BRIONGOS, the famous travel-writer:
"It's important to travel when you're young: you travel light and cheap and your heart is like a sponge. The paths across the world make up a school, which tempers the character and reinforces tolerance and solidarity. You learn to give and take, and above all, to share. You learn to enjoy small things, to value what you have, to be happy in times of scarcity and to celebrate abundance. You learn to listen, to watch, and to love"

Dear friends and -co-travellers !
I hope, your spring- and early-summer trips have turned out as satisfactory and beautiful as planned!
To me fate has not been very kind in this respect. It surprised me with a heavy, life-threatening illness,keeping me in hospital & intensive care unit for more than 2 months.
Thank you all for your nice wishes and -comments; inspite of my recent bad luck I do not intend to change my masterplan so I hope, to meet some of you again this year!!
Have a nice summer and Happy Traveling !! |

Hi Willy, I hope you are doing well now. I didn't know you were sick for some time; I've been away from VT for several months. But now I will be active again. Ciao! |
