....'They sit out on the balcony, talking. As first they were nervous and awkward with each other, the words don't come easily and are charged with tension when they do. But after only a short while conversations starts to flow, they relax a little, they discover to their relief that they get on well, that they share a certain humour related to an alienation from things.

I wish i had the same guts as you but as we all different in our ways i am serving my physical commitment on a platter for my career, but my guts, my guts is in my big big heart and open mind.
The World is just made up of places, images captured on film and the experiences and friends you meet. Someday, i will learn how other people feel and see things, someday i'd get to experience it. I have taken steps to change this life, to slowly not get used to comfort, to move away from what i know, making wrong turns to correct them, throwing myself into unfamiliarity, finding new use for my senses; touch, sight, taste, sounds, smells. I have been happy with myself.
...'the strangeness of everything scares him, but it thrills him too, the thought of casting away his normal life is like freedom, the way it was when they met each other in Greece. And maybe that is the true reason for this journey. be shedding all the ballast of familiar life they are each trying to recapture the sensation of weightlessness they remember but perhaps never lived, in memory more than anywhere else travelling is like free-fall, or flight'
See you in January trooper!
