Travel, one of the best ways of teaching that I know

One of the best ways of teaching a young person is by traveling with them! Nothing like taking a yang lady on a trip to teach her about geography, history, culture, adaptation and differences! I will always have the happiest memories with my nice Leonor, from our trip to Paris, where o went  to see Ed Sheeran’s. Concert for a 18th birthday!

Lawrence of Arabia - Seven Pillars of Wisdom

'All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.' (Lawrence of Arabia)

J.M. Coetzee - Slow Man

“Home…what does that mean? I told you what I think about home. A pigeon has a home, a bee has a home, an Englishman has a home, perhaps. I have a domicile, a residence.   This is my residence. This flat,   this city, this country. Home is too mystical for me…” J.M. Coetzee in Slow Man,p.197
