on a shoestring

On the road again. On a shoestring this time. Leaving a country where you have spent some time and where you have had a good time it's like leaving a friend. You know you will miss it. You have got accostumed to little gestures, you have learned the language as to go around and make yourself undestood...you have got to know some people and rules.
On the road again. Many things ahead. I'm crossing the Malay Peninsula overland by bus and train. Travelling overland sets my thoughts in motion (and it's cheaper!). It's like meditating. Movement makes me still... Those over there are the Petrona Towers. They don't seem so high from here...
Destiny: The Beach. Hopefully in a couple of days I'll be saying "sawadee-ka" and making a bow to a Thai Inmigration Officer. Only, hopefully, you never know what can happen on your way.

que si oh! Que unos dias en la playita dandonos envidia a los que vivimos en el reino de la humedad.
Desgraciadamente no conozco esa sensación de melancolía de la que hablas, pero supongo que en breve se convertirá en buenos recuerdos y una mayor experiencia vital.
De hecho debo confesarte que tu frase "...el error es no cambiar tu, para conseguir fluir con tu entorno y adaptarte al medio" me ha impresionado por la sabiduría que en ella hay implicita.
En fin... que disfrutes mucho!!
Apertas poderosas!!!
