Istanbul, TürkieWELCOMEsep 2025Taking it one day at a time
[ WHAT TRAVEL MEANS TO ME ]Travel is wonderful; it is enriching. It stirs emotions we never expected to feel. But as thrilling and wonderful as it is, travel is also a privilege, one we should never take for granted.
Imagine stepping into someone’s home, walking through the rooms they’ve carefully curated, past walls layered with memories and shelves filled with stories. In someone’s home, you’re surrounded by some of the most intimate pieces of their life. And if you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of their rituals; the quiet, meaningful routines that shape their world.
This is travel, the sacred act of being welcomed into someone else’s home. And with a little bit of luck, combined with the right amount of humility and openness, you may even be invited to witness the rituals that make that home uniquely theirs.
