“A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.” ― Lao Tzu

“Un buon viaggiatore non ha piani fissi e non è concetrato sull’arrivare” – Lao Tzu
I left a warm and sunny Rome.
I’ve traveled for 9 hours on a plane that I had never heard- I’ve started studying my book about “the history of fashion from XXVIII – XX sec ” and seen “the wizard of OZ” movie.I was hoping to arrive as soon as possible, but then I didn’t want to go out to finish the other film on my screen. I’ve spent a very short time in Toronto. I ate my first hamburger. Fresh air and fresh feelings. I saw the sailboats from the bus and all the cranes that makes this city a “work in progress”.
And then, as an American – to be honest since I’m Italian I’ve suffered a lot – I took the Greyhound to Chicago. I tried to sleep. Stolen pictures of landscapes from the neon signs. Listened to music. Citizen Cope. And thought a lot. Thought that I’m here to see and photograph as many places as possible. With my eyes. With my heart. And mind. That walk in Chicago in the evening. With the smell of fresh rain. The skyscrapers and lights as white as stars have already made me forget the tiredness of the 24 hours of travelling.

Sono partita da una calda e assolata Roma.

Where are you beautiful? Why don’t you join me :P?!?
I love the Lao Tzu citation. It`s very true.
Yes, I think it’s very important when you travel, be flexible and enjoy everything, even the travel itself. xxx
Exactly and the greyhound bus has a cult reputation stateside for being the wanderer`s preferred choice. I wonder if I`ll get the chance to use it someday. Hope Chicago was fun : )
Chicago is amazing! and full of green inspirations!
Ahah, quando ho visto la panchina ho pensato: sarebbe bello metterci l’header del blog! E poi ho visto la foto dopo… 😉
Deve essere bellissima la città! ^_^
La pensiamo esattamente allo stesso modo….prendi la foto e metti anche il tuo :). mi fa piacere se ti va. bacini bellezza
Bellissime foto! Vorrei essere lì anche io *_* Mi manca viaggiare o almeno la sensazione di libertà che dona (senza bimbi ovviamente :D)
eh sì in effetti viaggiare è una delle cose più belle. Per un po’ di tempo ho avuto paura di prendere l’aereo, ma poi grazie all’aiuto di chi mi vuole bene, l’ho superato, non ti puoi privare di una delle cose più belle. Vedere posti nuovi e più sono lontani e più sono diversi :*
Forte le tue inziali sulla panchina ! Bellissimi foto e chè viaggio meraviglioso, ti mando un grosso bacione – SérachShirò :)!
