2007 Travel Writing Competition Award



Moved to greener pastures ! Read more about my travel adventures at http://travelrevelry.livejournal.com

In 2007, I took my trusty Fuji Camera, a backpack, a mini Ashworth luggage and flew to Europe in deep winter hoping to find some of life's bite-sized epiphanies. I landed myself in Germany's police station, nearly got nabbed in Paris, witnessed a demonstration in Paris, had nothing to eat for Christmas in Germany, had very bad toe cramps in Prague; but I stumbled upon streaks of inspiration and splashes of love in Leipzig, in Amersterdam; from graffitiis on stone walls, from the sidewalks, from crawling into solitude, from watching snowflakes on New Year's Eve and counting every star.
