This blog is a call to action for all those who have dreamed of travel abroad, yet always felt that their ambition was out of their reach and beyond their means.

It is a journal about a journey. A journey to gain insight into an intriguing culture through the lens of its history and that history’s living manifestation: its people and communities.

I will be telling stories of my own and sharing those of others that crop up along the way. Expect historical insights and attempts at cultural synthesis. The positive impact of travel will be a constant theme, and I will attempt to demonstrate the surprising ease with which meaningful travel can be accomplished, despite the misconception that it is always prohibitively expensive or too dangerous.
