There are places we come across while leafing through book pages, it’s just a picture, right? But you already find yourself, your eyes searchingly admiring it thoroughly, your mind already time traveling, making you feel how the time there would actually pass, you’ve already lived it in mind, you feets are eager to rush over there, your eyes forcing a vision of that place exactly in front of you. Ever happened? For me it’s too common, but whenever I look at pictures of Edinburgh, my eyes widen and I’m already in time when I’ll wander their in old streets, and autumn weather, the beautiful and surreal moment is recreated in my head.

For people it may be any ordinary city in their list in United Kingdom, but I place it as first land after India where my feets are eager to leave their trace in every corner of street that seem empty, filled with immense silence, yet the weather and cold air mist pouring, it’s not in visiting and clicking pictures in any city, traveling is all about exploring, searching, treasuring memories of places and living the moment while recreating, connecting with yourself while disconnecting from the world, escaping time, traveling to somewhere that will actually empty your heart…

I’m really not sure what Edinburgh and time and life has in hold for me, but if I step in here, I’ll surely share with you all readers. I’m waiting still for that day, and I’ll get back to you all, till then admiring it from a distance… Romanticizing it. Romance is good unless you don’t have to drag in people, and you are completely idolized by beauty of Earth and nature and inspire to discover the unseen, like Vasco da Gama, Christopher Columbus, they all set out on their own, following the direction of wind, and they really discovered gems.

We Romanticize those places because we are so influenced by them, lost in beauty that we want to see it through our naked eyes, ever romanticized any unknown or random place? Do share, try naming a place after your thoughts, that will be maybe called so in near future, just set on trips carefree unbothered by what’s happening in the world, not distracted by anything. You, that picture and your will to move is enough so you finally land there.
