    Kami Bukan Kaya | Kami Backpackers Berpoket Nipis

    © 2012 Azman Jumat | Melayan Penjual Cenderahati Di Tasik Dal | Kashmir | India Sedang saya bersama rakan saya Azman Jumat, meronda-ronda sekitar Dal Lake dengan shikara, tiba-tiba datang sebuah perahu kecil mendekati kami, dari jauh dah nampak, meluru laju ke arah kami. Dalam hati risau jugak, takut kena “Paw” ke apa, takut pengemudi shikara kami dah pakat panggil orang kampung untuk jadikan kami habuan atau tebusan, maklumlah pengalaman baru di sini, ianya bukan sesuatu yang kami jangkakan. Mungkin juga tak cukup research sebelum saya ke Kashmir. kami ni bukannya bawa banyak wang ringgit, datang pun dengan AirAsia bukannya Malaysia Airlines “I came from the village, I’m village people” sambil…

    You Don’t Need To Travel The World To Be World Class Photographer

    Once Upon a Time in Kashmir | It’s The Journey That’s Matter

    © 2013 Wazari Wazir | Floating Vegetable Market | Dal Lake | Kashmir The Journey “Journey are gifts we give ourselves. Even if you are lucky, and have someone else footing the bill for your journey, you are still giving yourself a gift just by going. Too many people have opportunities to travel, but choose to stay home, fearful of the unknown, shackled by their everyday rut, tied down to commitments that don’t have to tie them down if they would seek creative solutions.
