Stuck in my 9 hours a day, 5 days a week job; I can’t stop browsing the pictures I proudly possess from the little travelling I have done over the few years. To me, the ultimate freedom lies in getting lost in a new city looking for that attraction mentioned in that Blue Travel guidebook that we all dearly hold on to but end up finding my real self, the smell and the sound of chaotic markets, the view after an eight hours hike, the joy in scoring a hotel room at a price much lower than the rates mentioned in that blue travel guide, all the people we meet and the stories they have to share, later bumping into them after a week in the most unexpected place, showers replaced by deo spray, the freedom of carrying our whole world in a backpack, to me that is freedom.

This post is dedicated to all those bitten by the travel bug yet stuck in a 9 hours a day, 5 days a week job.
