I wonder how many of us are reading the daily short thought-provoking phrases that African Child is posting?
"A Traveller's Words"
These expressions, short and accompanied by wonderful pictures, are fast becoming my favourite daily read!
Many thanks Leon, they are greatly appreciated.
Oh, and guys, please don't post discussions in that thread, rather post your comments in this topic instead.

Re: "A Traveller's Words"
Yes Eric, I've followed them and agree that they're very thought provoking, but to post comment would be to spoil something akin to pure.
Keep them coming, Leon!
Keep them coming, Leon!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

As you have already done 
But Hey, why not if it's in keeping with the gist of the thread. When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Re: "A Traveller's Words"
The secret is to keep it short and simple, like Leon's been doing, and pair the words with a great photo. And definitely no discussion there. The words that are posted there are so very awe-inspiring. I missed them very much when Leon went on holiday... guess there will be no more holidays for Leon unless he makes arrangements with these things while he is away.... ;)

Re: "A Traveller's Words"
My gedagtes loop vanoggend deur die verlate paaie wat ek en die Hilux die laaste paar jaar soos sielsgenote, onafskeidbaar gereis het.
Dis snaaks elke plek het sy eie bekende reuk en as jy vir die eerste keer daar kom dan ruik jy dit, so' duidelik. Ek was eenkeer n maand en n half in Namibie gewees, oppad terug Kaap toe, ruik ek vir die eerste keer weer die fynbos, tog bly ek hier maar let nooit dit op nie. Dan is daar die pad daar naby Albertinia waar die alwyn reuk so opvallend is en jou sonder twyfel vertel jys nou in die Ooskaap.
Baie van " Afrika " se stede en dorpe ruik weer vir my soos ashoop of vullisgat, erens brand iemand gewoonlik iets. Die Kalahari windjie bring weer vir jou n onmeskenbare donderwolk-reenreuk van ver anderkant sy verlore duine. Onvergeetlike Kaokoland.... die Himba's se soet reuk op hulle vel wat jou vertel van hulle teenwoordigheid terwyl jy om die kampvuur staan en die verte in staar. Die Knysna woude se nat reuk, grondpad in die Karoo na die reen.
Elke plek, n reuk gekoppel om wonderlike herhinneringe terug te bring.
Musiek is baie dieselfde. Ek is een van daai mense wat n liedjie luister tot hy holrug gery is. Soos ek op die verskillende trips was was daar n liedjie wat my altyd weer terugvoer na n spesifieke plek as ek dit weer hoor....
