Traveling in a different way



This is my comment on Traveling in a different way. In the birthday of Mr Paulo Coelho, Thanks Mr P Coelho for guiding us.

1] Avoid museums: 
A new Foreign City is a big museum for me. So I would not jail myself in a small museum while I have the large one.

2] Frequent bars: 
One cannot judge the beauty of a path merely by looking at its entrance.

I do agree regarding the bar as a place of meeting. But in our countries, we have casinos, cafeteria,...many places for this meeting with no alcoholic drink.

3] Be open and forward: The best tourist guide is someone who lives there, knows everything, but doesn't work at a travel agency.

I do not work in a travel agency.

I know something. Can I be your guide?

If you visit Egypt again, you will find 80 million guides welcoming you especially in this holy month. Is it ok?

4] Try and travel alone:

Alone till now, but I prefer to have someone to encourage me during travel. I am lazy.

5] Don't compare:

I did this comparison in some Arab cities then stopped. Every city has its own personality. For sure no city resembles the other. I enjoyed the new different taste of each place I visit . I forget the differences - than my own country- in economic and demographic states.

6] Understand that everyone understands you:

You reminds me with a nice time with friend. We had a new language based on actions, reactions. We were building a new meaning of the sentences.

7] Don't buy much:

Do not say this for any female partner. Take care, they will do the reverse.

8] Don't try and see the world in a month:

OK. Who will pay? Dad or me?

9] A journey is an adventure:

Go to the Sistine Chapel, but also get lost in the streets, wander down alleyways, feel free to look for something, without knowing what it is. I swear you will find it and that it will change your life.
I would try this adventure.

Finally, Let us go to a new place...... and do the 9 advices listed before.

Now, I would like to travel to.....whatever the place by these advices. I would lie to search my peace of mind.
It may be a new pilgrimage visit. To be in a private holy place and join people who coming only for God. It may be to an Arab county to explore and write, and may be to interact with their culture provided there is democracy. Or again our – me and Isaac- previous precious dream an African place. Or nasty dream to travel to a civilized country to continue my MD. Who knows what is coming!
Just to travel.
