About this blog

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. "

- Chinese Proverb

Let me tell you a story. A tale of what we know, what we learn, and the path that leads us there. A trail of footprints in the sand, new beginnings and the journey it entails. With a growing sense of adventure and the will to gad about I set out to see what the world has to offer. Culture, food, people; a world of experience. Come home with a broader perspective, some wisdom, and a few stories to tell.

This is my "thousand miles."
