Little adventures in places with hidden wonders.
The bright hues were beginning to darken. Lights from
honking vehicles, lamp posts and nearby shops soon showcased, guiding our
curious feet, interested minds and wandering eyes. Several lanterns hung above
us, even banners with complex-looking Chinese characters.
Smells of incense, sweat, fried food, fruits being sold in
vendors’ carts, aftermaths of light rain and traces of the day’s heat were
irresistible. The flavors of Chinese noodles and other quite foreign, truly
authentic delicacies danced around in my mouth. My palette was on fire.
Different sounds rung in my ears. Horses’ hooves attached to
quaint kalesas cackling along the
pavement, engines of cars and motorcycles, mixed and mostly heightened voices
of people in contact.
And of course, there was the best kind of company. Thoughts
were expressed, antics were shared, and warm memories were made.
Take trips in areas that you haven’t explored, with people
who share the same passions you do. It soothes the soul. Or something like
that.
