Wanderlust

All of us have this little traveler in the deepest corner of our hearts. The urge to travel, to see the world in different views, to relate with other people, to come across the colorful cultures, to be in awe by a beauty that is natural, to escape from the familiar and to fully understand who we really are. To abandon our homes for the sake of seeking for something new and better but eventually realizing that there is no place like home.


We go gaga over the holiday's seat sales to book the cheapest possible flight. We save up for our dream trips. We willingly give up a greater part of our savings to explore the world. We are thirsty to be somewhere we've never been before. Nevertheless, it is absolutely worth every cent. We get to see that the world is broad and there's so much to see. We bump into people, assimilate the way they live and in due course adapt them.


I haven't been everywhere but it's definitely on my list. I want to see the beauty of this big, wide and wild world. I want to be touched by how certain people live differently and yet have this connection that is incomprehensible. I want to write about my experiences with the different places I've been to and be able to narrate the feelings that I have to let others see or even feel, what I saw and felt. I want to be in touch on what's happening with this world and relate with the people I barely know. I want to be influenced by their vibrant cultures and yet remain faithful to what I am really believing for. I want to get out of my comfort zone.

One day, I know, this is certain, I'm gonna go and travel the world. One place at a time or maybe two. But I am, without a doubt, going to press on with my dreams and see them come into reality. 


"My restless, roaming spirit, would not allow me to remain at home very long."

" The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page."
