Once The Travel Bug Bites, There Is

I'm Aware That, If You Feel Down, It Can Be Strangely Unrelated To Circumstances Around You. That's Just The Way Life Is.

The Need To Eat, Sleep And Dry Out Plays Havoc With Your Sense Of Wonder.

It's Not An Easy Option. The Essence Of Travel Is Letting Go Of Habit And Prejudice And Relishing The Unfamiliar. Food You've Never Eaten Before, A Language You've Never Spoken Before, Religion That Mystifies, Customs That Confuse, Politics That Perplex, All Question Everyday Assumptions About How You Live Your Life.

I Don't See Why It Should Be Remarkable That You Can Acquire A Reputation For Fairness And Decency. Those Are Qualities Shared By So Many People. And The Great Majority Of People I Meet Are Decent People, Just Trying To Navigate Their Way Through The World Without Causing Too Much Trouble.
