For me, going on an adventure means starting with an idea of where you want to go or what you want to achieve but being completely open to things going wrong in the knowledge that really it’s the unexpected things that create the best memories. It’s very well and good saying that taking a wrong turn is a blessing in disguise but let’s face it often you don’t realize it until afterwards. Chances are someone’s photos or trip has inspired you to take the roundtrip in the first place.
Maybe mine are inspiring you right now. So you dream of going to the places you see in the photos and when you get there, of course you want a similar photo. But create your own landscapes too. By discovering random places and getting lost you’ll find spots just as beautiful and too unique that you can capture. It will make showing your friends and family your holiday photos, that bit more interesting.
Travel memories a way to keep stuff together and display the place even if you don’t have time to put it in an album . If I learnt anything from this experience it’s that memories are one of the most important things we have. Everyday spent in Palestine is a great adventure, coming back to my old life is a great challenge itself.
We live our daily lives facing challenges and adventures with the reality we live in It’s a great honor for me to be a part of this life here.
Our souvenirs are the heroes that sacrifice their lives every day for the sake of this land, the checkpoints that we have to cross from one city to another and wait for hours there until the soldiers decide to let us pass every day in Palestine is written in History and I’m proud to be a part of it .
