To Infinity and beyond!

Traveling... Saying this without trying to brag, but I've traveled a lot. I've been in the Middle East and also in more Western countries like England for example.
Funny thing happened to me when I was in Egypt. I was maybe around 11-years old and traveling with my dad. We stayed there for two weeks and every night we went to this little local restaurant. The food was great and the staff there was really, really nice! So, anyhow, one night after we had yet another lovely diner, we walked around, and in this little alley, there was a small weird ''general store'' of a kind. Selling all kind of statues, and miscellaneous stuff. So, we walked in, and the store owner attacked us, bombing  with different kind of offers. After we made clear that we weren’t interested in anything he had to offer us, he said that I was a very pretty boy and he’d like to trade me for a camel and marry me to his daughter! And remember, I was maybe 11-12 years old. He pulled out a little picture of his daughter, a pretty girl, (minus the mustache). So obviously, - cause I’m here and writing this blog – my dad didn’t trade me for a camel. Maybe next time. It might have been cool tough…
<-- How can you say no to that face?

  1. Just imagine your life married to that girl! And your family's life with the camel... The weirdest things can happen when you travel!
