The Traveler

Travel above clouds
“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure.  There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.”
                                                           -Jawalhara Nehru, First Prime Minister of India

At some point in my life, I have realized that prejudice stems from the fear of the unknown.  Sometimes, people may tend to be insular, discriminating, and selective of people who are different from them.  Taking inspiration from this, I gradually moved out of my comfort zone, started to take control and began traveling! 
I’ve always dreamed of having a glimpse of the world to taste and experience what other cultures can offer.   I’ve always wanted to go to different places, meet new people, try new things and savor new cuisines.   Wandering around domestic and international destinations exposes me to diverse ways of life; it opens my eyes to new cultures and traditions.  It enlightens me by interacting with people of different orientations, energizes me by doing the same thing that other people do, and nourishes me with enjoyable and authentic recipes.  I appreciate nature more while living in the moment. 
As I travel, I continue to believe that we can reinforce humanity and live peacefully in a harmonious world.  I can happily say that this is the time of my life.  My chance to explore and to take part! ♥♥♥
