“But most days, if you’re aware enough to give yourself a choice, you can choose to look differently at this fat, dead-eyed, over-made-up lady who just screamed at her kid in the checkout line. Maybe she’s not usually like this. Maybe she’s been up three straight nights holding the hand of a husband who is dying of bone cancer. Or maybe this very lady is the low-wage...

I think that possibly, may be, I'm falling for you
Every time I am asked to describe about my experience over here, I have to search through a tiny cabinet file in my brain for a new adjective to portray all of its charm — the honest and sweet locals, the most clear blue water and the whole atmosphere of it all that makes me feel like I am in paradise. Frankly, the journey to Hydra was not the most pleasant. Instead of resting, I had to take...

WatchTo all my friends and readers,

Love,
Mingi

Frankly, I find it ironic. This country is both ancient and modern, orient and western, rich and poor,...
