<font face="Lucida handwriting,verdana,arial" size="6">E<font face="verdana,arial" size="2">ver wondered why some people seem to never get enough of travelling?? Before my first backpacking tour in Asia, I asked myself that question. Nowadays, I don't wonder anymore. Today, I live for travelling and I try to visit new places a couple of times a year. Why I travel? Don't even think that it's because I don't like my darling Sweden - Sweden will always be dear to my heart and probably the only place where I ever can feel at home. Travelling opened my eyes, not only to other cultures but also to the fact that Sweden is a true paradise. Not a paradise with palm trees, but a paradise when it comes to clean fresh air, huge magic forests, fresh water, no starvation and no wars. I think I'm lucky to live here and I I get sad when I think of everybody out there who doesn't have the opportunity to go to school or have to walk miles and miles just to get some fresh water. I also get sad when finding old favourite travel destinations totally destroyed by huge hotels and souvenir shops. <font color="red"><i>In my eyes a true traveller is only an observer, not a conqueror.</i></font>
