Living on an island gives you an idea of how suffocating it can be to live static in one place. I have always believed that human beings carry in their DNA a strong sense of going beyond and seeing the unknown.
So many incredible places and diverse cultures and not getting to see them? I consider it a pity :(
I have lived for many years on an island and I know the feeling but I am guessing that especially on your island it is much more intense. This would probably change in the years to come and you are very young for pessimistic thoughts.
I wish you all the travels you crave for :)
Don't get me wrong, I intend to go with my cameras slung over my shoulder around the world, but many people can't, whether it's because of work, family, commitment, economics, even ideology, that's when I find it unfortunate that they can't see beyond their shoes. And like you said....especially in this particular island.
You are right. If you ask me I would say that there should be no borders at all and people should roam our beautiful planet freely! Nevertheless, I wouldn't idealise the travel as it is. I have seen people who have traveled a lot and can't see beyond their nose and people that have lived all their lives in a small settlement in the jungle and their minds are open to the universe itself. But I am sure that you'll make the most out of your future travels :)
Jjjj thats true!
Thank you Stefanos, best wishes for you.
