A quest to find what was never lost.
Journeys, travels, trips, adventures: they all describe the same thing. The leaving behind of what you know to seek out what you do not. However, when we leave a place behind, we take something with us. We leave a part of ourselves and take something from that place. It is in this process that we learn different cultures, meet new people, taste new tastes, and smell different smells.
We seek out different places not because we lack anything, but because we wish to give a little of ourselves to each new place. I think it is human nature to do so.
I enjoy the art of travel. Not because I am bored of where I am, but because it is exciting. I have seen many things as you all have, and I wish to continue to see more. A traveler knows that no two places are the same, yet everyplace has some familiarity.
So go forth and seek your new places, take a piece for yourself, and leave a piece of yourself so that if you ever go back, it will feel a little like home.
