I have so many things I've collected on the ways that remind me of 'back there'. Nice touch with the arabic on the Olay bottle though that's a real reminder seeing that everytime you put it on and bang you're back there, love that. I remember only a few months ago looking at an old travel diary and looking at a packet of crisps that I bought in Dubai or Abu Dhabi and it had arabic writing on the packet and when I looked at that I was back at the bar with drink in hand and eating those very crisps as if it were right then, but it was 27 years ago!

Luv the punchline. Sounds like you have a bad case of "far-sickness" aka "wanderlust" - the romantic desire to travel and explore.

I feel like when I wear it I will be reminded of my short time there and I will smile. Traveling is a great escape and the memories are little escapes from the everyday.

From the story it is clear the experience continues to shape your perspective and I am enjoying everything you share. And thank you again for the healthy dose of perspective. We all need more of that in our lives. Warren Thank you for brining a smile to my face and sharing more of your “life after the trip”.
