Rainy Day, dream away
Some travel memories
It's raining and cold outside. There is nothing to do and I lie down, close my eyes and dream myself into all the countries and journeys I have made.
I drift through the library of my memories, visiting places, cities, countries, people and events, feeling again the sun, the friendliness and the specialness of a foreign culture. I experience other ways of living and interacting.
I am just an observer who wants to learn to question the culture I grew up in.
So I am particularly taken with countries that are very different from my "home". North Africa, India or Thailand, Myanmar or Laos, Nepal or Ladakh.
