My fellow traveler, What I find most exciting about traveling are the the stories I bring home with me about the things I learned, the people I met, the dishes I savored. It's not only about what I see, it's also about what I feel. Traveling is a transformative experience and as we discover new lands we often find new territory within ourselves. Those internal discoveries are what take traveling from a diversion to an odyssey. This book is half empty because it is your book. It is your book about your odyssey. I believe it is St. Augustine who once said, “the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” I say the world is a book and every one of us has a story worth telling. I hope this pocket book will help you tell your story. I am the photographer behind the pictures featured in this book and the writer of Oisercage.com where I pen commentary on culture and share original photo essays. I am from Port-au-Prince, Haiti but I left my heart in Madrid, Spain.
