If I ever do, I shall not settle with someone who does not travel at least five times a year. The simple reason for this resolution is that during my life I have wasted numerous (literally) chances to travel abroad. They were all fully paid-for, too!

But it wasn’t “me” personally who wasted two chances to go to Italia, a chance to go to Egypt, one to go to Morocco, one to Lebanon, one to Bosnia, another to the United States. It was culture that cost me these trips and it was also religion.

You see, some people believe that it is against their religion to let a young lady (that’s me) travel alone. My family’s culture and religious beliefs pretty much goes along these lines. Personally though, I do not subscribe to this point of view. And at this particular moment, I am at the peak of my anger/resentment/irritation at this compulsory code of conduct.

I’ll write more about this later. Stay tuned for another episode of Fuming Tololy.
