A mathematical equation. A hefty number. A taxi driver who liked pasticcio. A half day girlfriend. A dance in Beijing and a boat ride on the Mekong River. Thirteen travel stories into the unknown of the world unfolding before my curious eyes. Thirteen memories. Eight and five experiences piled in the shelves of my heart, taken from my travel diary full of surprise, love, humor and strong doses of adventure. From Savannah, Kenya to distant Bali, and from Beijing to Burma, I lost myself in the beauty of the world, reaching places I had simply dreamed of as a child, without a map or compass, with my only guide being the thirst for the world's unknown. Of the distant, strange and unfathomable destination that always made my mind fly.
