Why Do I Still Do Jogging?

Why Do I Still Do Jogging?
In one of my previous posts I gave you my own and very personal 15 reasons why I do jogging. After  a year I still do it. I even bought the real jogging shoes and for the first time in my life I feel like a quasi professional runner. OK, far from quasi professional but still fairly determined and stick to the routine.

The author has a great sense of practical issues, good advices and precise comments. It would be almost impossible to buy, read and carry single-country guidebooks when travelling the world. Even if you bought it and kept it at home and studied ... Read more

In memory of Nicolas Bouvier

In memory of Nicolas Bouvier
Just yesterday 84th anniversary of Nicolas Bouvier’s birth passed (1929-1998). I would like to share one of many thoughts on traveling found in Le vide et le Plain, Carnets du Japon 1964-1970. “Too many people expect from the journey too much without thinking of what travel expects from them. They wish to get healed from their particular imperfections with the change of the place of residence, and the passion of the ... Read more
