From the beginning, I wanted to live my own life, and patiently I shored up that desire against wind and tide.
From Ella Maillart
I did not want to be depressed by the gap existing between my weakness and my ambition.
I wanted to learn a few foreign languages, and therefore I had to go abroad.
It is always our own self that we find at the end of the journey. The sooner we face that self, the better.
That idea of escapism... these words could sum up my life.
The true traveller is the one urged to move about for physical, aesthetic, intellectual as well as spiritual reasons.
