Vortex

You know what I love most about traveling? It does not only satisfy the five senses but also evoke inner feelings of thrill, melancholy and lust. It is hard to describe by words but the sum is that it is a blend of emotional turmoil and tranquility. At times, I feel overwhelmed by mixed desires (one of which is the desire to conquer) and other times, I feel being drawn into a land of realness, devoid of the pretence of modern societies. Various feelings keep running through my veins and you cannot help but recall the paths that led you to where you are now. I remember the familiar feelings I had when I was in China, behind which there was a somber tale of love. The mind is like the heart, in a state of turbulence as every second ticks by, oscillating between the past, the present and the future. Physically, you are wild. Mentally, you are wild. And emotionally, you are wild. As I let my imagination stray, I asked myself what if I were one of them. I asked what if my love lies here. Everything at home is put on hold. This is where you embark on an expedition and experience a great deal of adventures. At the same time, you explore and unleash your inner soul that has been caged by social conventions. At the end of the day, I return home… But as a different man… Because their culture has been absorbed into my blood, regardless of the briefness of this trip.
