Someday, I want to travel somewhere. Somewhere exotic. A trip with no destination and no time limitation, to all the places that I've only dreamed of going. No longer will I only be seeing these places in visual illusions of black and white, my dark, dreamy and unreal images will come to life as my mind is exposed to all the bizarre colors that are painted by the beautiful sights around the world.

Travelling lightly, my bags will only hold a few change of clothes. With my loved one not behind me, not in front of me, but joining me by my side, we will make this experience ever-lasting. During the trip, I want to set myself at ease. I want to be free of all emotions, as well as all thoughts. I won’t let anything get in my way of me enjoying myself, I will take control like a captain spinning his wheel and guide the way.

Not only do I want to see flows of treading waters, I also want to walk through the sandy beaches barefoot, I want to feel the grains of sand escape through my toes. I want to lay down on a blanket, feel the breezy wind blow in my hair as I fall asleep counting the stars that shine as bright as my significant other’s eyes. I want to see all the animals I don’t know the names of. I want to try different types of food until I’m too full to pick up another piece to stuff into my mouth. I want to send post cards in different languages from all the cities I visit. I want to be able to smell, taste, sense, and feel all the fine things the world has hidden. I want to make my trip a story worth telling.
