Egypt: Dr Alaziz’s medical clinic- Charity
29 January 2017 Kindness is an everlasting virtue. Being charitable must come from your heart and be within your capabilities. Travelling + charity = heaven + therapy. What else could make travelling more memorable and enriching? My intentions are simple: I want to know what happiness is. I want to gain a bit of inner beauty since when I have insecurities and display unattractive features, charity keeps me in check. Above all, seeing someone smile even for a second makes me complete.

My dear Uncle
If the news of my Uncle’s cancer was a rude awakening then his recent passing at the age of 62 is equally as sudden and painful. I remember asking my uncle from a young age why he smokes so much?

Dear friends, Not bandits… rather, likeminded brethren with no apparent mission — just to travel, think, read, write and have a good time. This is a site where experiences are shared and rants fly free. The photos, recordings, video clips and views expressed here are personal (unless otherwise stated). If you wish to use any of the content, feel free (not for profit 此博客堅決抵制不勞而獲的行為), but please do cite it:) Enjoy. PS: Why bandits? Bandits are crazy and rebels with an adventurous spirirt and this somewhat weird passion to venture into the unknown. Bandits also steals and I’m an expert at that…I have no idea how many times I’ve stolen the beautiful sunsets and sights of all the archaeological wonders that exist in this world. I feel sorry for many countries and cities since they lost their privacy while I enjoyed myself…but no apologises because I’m a bandit! By the way, if you ever come…
