I have been fortunate enough to travel to many far away places in my lifetime. Experiencing a different place and culture can be a life-changing experience and is essential to trying to gain a better understanding of what makes the world go round. More importantly it can give you a fresh perspective on your own way of life and the things we take for granted. We don’t notice the things that are just a part of our every day life, but to someone from another place the mundane can seem strange and beautiful.
