A non-influencer who likes to showcase his travel photography away from the algo hustle. Let's see how far Nostr will take this. Occasional drivels- might or might not be useful.

Not to say it was better, but the fear of getting lost was more "real"- not figuratively, and not performative. You literally had to ask for directions, struggle with language, and sometimes maps had to be manually drawn on a scrap of paper by helpful strangers. If you didn't find your way and miss the last bus, then you'd have to stay another night. Those days were fun. #Travel #Travelstr #Nostr #NostrAsia #Pinoy #TravelPhotography npub120hpldgn8lgn2hk5sy8axe48n2h58qm50rnwgjm6lm6wtqe7q3wsccjnhs Jostr Felt like I was the only traveler in the land of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Mine are: 1. SYRIA. Was so touched by the kindness of new friends who woke up early in the morning just to see me off at the airport. Started to cry when they were thanking me we met- when it should have been the other way around. Like do I even deserve that? (This is just before the civil war broke out.) 2. PAKISTAN. Oh, my trip wasn't even half-done yet but I was already crying. The experience was just so pure and raw. I didn't want to leave. 3. BERLIN. Bag got stolen, and lost my teddy that I'd travelled with for years. #Travel #TravelTheWorld #TravelPhotography #Travelstr #Nostr #NostrAsia #Travelogue #Pinoy npub120hpldgn8lgn2hk5sy8axe48n2h58qm50rnwgjm6lm6wtqe7q3wsccjnhs Jostr Am slowly easing back to social media and feeling a bit chatty (in my head) lately. So, my 41-strong followers (LOL) can expect drivels in the coming days, as I struggle to find coherence in expressing my thoughts on various interests: travel and photography- obviously, rural living, trading, books, freedom, Linux... Not sure how to marry all those in a single account, but that's basically me.
