Leaving Home



"Leave your country in search of loftiness and travel! For in travel there are five benefits: Relief of adversity, earning of livelihood, knowledge, etiquettes, and noble companionship."


Imam As-Shafi’i

Living in Lyon


Leaving home has predicatively being a life changing experience. For the first time in my life I am far away from all the comforts of family and friendships. I moved to Lyon, France a month ago to do my MA. Lyon is a gorgeous city and I fell in Love with the streets long before I met her people. This is home for now and I am slowly finding new comforts.

Exist!

Ideals


The French Riviera







I have been looking forward to a trip to the French coatline since i got my travelling shoes. It was everything i wanted it to be and much more. We went to Ville French an amazing beach just outside Nice, its a tourist haven. Its an imposing type of beauty, the kind thats in movies and postcards.
When you drean you go there.
Then the unimaginable happened and i was lucky enough to see a place that has been my ultimate spot on earth, Monte Carlo, Monaco. To describe that day in words will be a book worth of words, you would never put down. Downright Gorgeous!
