TRAVELLIVE 3-2016
Getting up as the first rays of sun enter my room, I can feel in the air that the days of bitter cold and damp have passed and that days of warmth and sunshine are upon us. Good weather is a lucky sign for my upcoming journeys with friends. In this century of technology and high-speed connections, you can travel around the world with the click of a mouse. All the data you could ever want to form an itinerary, from the cuisine to the cultural development of the land, are on your screen immediately upon typing a few characters into the search box. But how long will this stay with you? The things you have just seen, the dreamlands of your fantasies, all fade away someday. Few things in life are more inevitable.
