The intention here is to document those memorable journeys in these other parts of the world through the photo journals... in case i got amnesia, become senile .. .. someone pls remind me about this website then.
Each visit back to these sites would without fail, bring back lotsa memories, rush of emotions (wat am i doing here!) ... wonderful/weird people met along the way, life-changing experiences and cheap and not-so-cheap thrills, little adventures, stupid things that were done then, joy of travelling, especially with great company, .... and many many more...
The journey begins from Frankurt .....
