The Art of Travel
11 Jan
Gottcha!
Or I made it?
Which one should be the headline? Which one would be the lesson, or the sentence that u want to shout?
The art of traveling, a movie that actually surprised me, every 20 minutes… or kind of 3 times in one hour and 40 minutes.
3 times cause there are 3 moments. First when I read about it found it kind of boring, a guy that instead of going on his honeymoon, plans a honeymoon on his own.
Not really nice places that he gets to see, I wasn’t there (not that I saw every point on the map,… din contra), didn’t recognize any of the landscapes… then, faith offers him a journey in the jungle – used to be my favourite adventure during many summers, reading Jules Verne, but now, globalisation, or becoming a slave of technology, being the modern child of the 20th century, I can’t find that so amazing anymore.
Although, it captured it nicely, almost like Verne used to do it. But the main characters weren’t children, only one of them – the main character, not even 20 years old… he was the one that took the best out of it, learned lot’s of lessons thaught by the wiser ones, by people who really can have fun and be bitten by many mosquitos (more on one hand then on the other one). People who did it. They broke a record, they made their way through an unknown jungle.
And he made it also. Forgot his love, his pain, and won another one, older, wiser, “The G Spot”, or more like her, Anna.
The end of one journey, is the beginning of a new one. A wise quotation, that fits him.
Not on his own now, but with his beloved woman from Prague, they get to visit paradise and still make foots on earth. Another amazing landscapes for our eyes.
Machu Pichu, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Chile… for some of us, who enjoy the capitals of shopping malls and 5 stars hotels, don’t really seem like nice destinations.
But watch it, you’ll remain thrilled, and feel even his amazement with every step he takes on another onknown or undiscovered beauty of the planet.
And there are a lot more to be seen, maybe in another movie, or by reading his book, or some other travellers guieds. There is always something to learn, and when u don’t know where to start something or if to leave something, just make a trip, travel, get out of your world, cause it can make wonders…
“Do not go where the path might lead,
go instead where there is no path,
and leave a trail.”
Ralph Eldo Emerson
