About books..

"The truth is that what fascinates me is not so much being in a place as not being there; how places in the mind once you have left them, how they are imagined before you arrive, or how they are seemingly called out of nothing to illustrate a thought or story like my tree down yonder. These mental spaces map our innerlives more fully than any 'real' map, delineating the border of here and there that also shape what we see in the present. My private geography, like most people's, excludes huge portions of the world. I have my own verions of the famous Saul Steinberg map of the USA..."- A Plea for Eros by SIRI HUSTVEDT

I walked into the library hoping to a find book which will keep me sane on my daily slooow tram ride to the office. I never have a specific book in mind, I would just pick up a random book by an unknown writer to me, flip through the first few pages and see if it's something I can relate too. Something alongst these lines will be ones that I usually pick up..

These are very good friends I've known since 7 years old. I wish we had a photo of us then.

Picture taken in Phillip Island- Australia where we saw the most little penguins march back from the Southern Sea to their homes.
