What I Learned from... Travel - diversity

Robert Hruzek is 'at it again': another Group Writing Project. It seems I can't never not join ;-)

So, here goes: What I Learned From... Travel: to watch, to look, to observe

I've travelled by many ways: by train, by bus, by car, by plain, by ferry, on foot, by push-bike, by boot, by horse, by canoe.

Village road I've travelled on country lanes, small provincial roads, fast motorways, through tranquil villages, through quiet towns, through busy world capitals, through forests, along side never ending farm fields, past smoking industries.

I've had smooth travels, set in traffic jams, got trapped in a 10 car pile-up, waited for connections, waited for delayed trains; had sun shine, storm, rain, black-ice, snow, hail, wind in the back, wind full face.

I've travelled alone, with my partner, with family, with friends, with colleagues, with school mates, friends, in groups where you're only a stranger for a short while.

I've travelled for work, for pleasure, to reach a holiday destination, I've travelled as a holiday destination, travelled for get help, travelled to give help.

Short journeys, long journeys.Just around the corner

I've travelled away and I've travelled back home.

And I learned to watch, to look, to see, to observe the diversity.
Because around the next bend, the next corner could be something new. Even on those roads, paths we travel every day, day after day.

Diversity is just around the corner.
