the south of the other side

every journey needs a plan. at least a start and an end point. but if there is already a path to follow, it’s so comfortable to lean back, enjoy the route, situations and coincidences that happen of their own accord. so please lean back and enjoy …

a journey starts

a journey starts mostly at the home base and it could take some time to reach the final destination. the way to go there might feel like a little journey within a journey. surrounded by other travelers and never alone.
