I left New Zealand mid-2003, bound for Istanbul and a new lif. After two years, a Belgian guy lured me into his world, deep in the heart of Europe. For a long time I was an in-process immigrant. One day we married. These days it's about photography, a little red wine and wandering ... and so the journey goes.

Imagine ...
All men are world citizens by birth. Every man has the right to go and settle anywhere and to live like a human being. Shrii Prabhat R. Sarkar, Indian poet, linguist, and philosopher

Yesssssssssssssss Di! You and I are soooooooo sisters!! (I always had this feeling about 'us'!) What a fabulous quote/concept and so serendipitous! I have just finished reading a great little book called The Anatomy of Peace by Emery Reves wherein he advocates for a world government as the only possibility for peace. Plus I have been searching the net for everything I can find on World Citizenship. It's powerful and fascinating.
...woman were clearly included.... I'm getting a legal opinion :)
In all seriousness tho it was cool catching up with you the other night.
P.S Although Di may be appreciated by reading, I can say without hesitation that Di-on-Skype is more fun by far - especially if you can get her to laugh out loud. Mush better than lol anyday.

Yeah - but what about the women? Typical!!! Channeling Di 101 :)
You write the loveliest things, traveller one. Thank you!
I've been enjoying your blog latey and am curious about 'The Anatomy of Peace' ... I'm glad you found the quote serendipitous.
World citizenship ... I like the sound of it, especially since the whole borders and rules thing is driving me crazy.
Lol Mark ... channeling me huh? I thought about changing it before posting but decided it went without saying that women were clearly included.
See ... I can be mature and reasonable.

Legal opinion ... okay Mark, so perhaps I could alter the original text.
