Roaming the world

it is when you are trapped at home that you miss the air out there. It is when you are confined that you'll miss freedom.

I miss the air outside the house. I miss the horribly polluted air on the roads. I miss the insanely cold air conditioned air in the shopping malls.

but I am grateful for the internet. it lets me catch a glimpse of whats out there and beyond. surfing blogs of people overseas bring me to literally to where they are and makes me miss France. I wish I could speak french, the ever romantic language. I miss Japan, the place i call home.
all these memories were triggered simply by reading Sharon Au's blog (http://negi.wordpress.com/). She is in france. the place that looks totally different above and underground. if you've been there, you will know what i mean.

I want to roam the world, slowly savor every single bit the place has to offer. I want to feel the world. am sick and tired of trying to cover as much as possible in every single city..this is not feeling the place. this is doing a tourist endorsed route march of the place! from now on i shall make it a point to connect with every new place i'm going. only then the memory will last and will be beautiful. with that, i shall start with Phuket. 2 more days and no planning was done. i'm not panicking unlike what i usually would feel. great...

roaming the world shall forever be my dream.. the one that can only take place when i'm asleep..to those who have the privilege to do so, be grateful that you are the chosen one. we all have a role to play in life and yours is to go.....

without the atmosphere and connection with the place, these 2 places look exactly the same.
