Ten days in France

The best thing about travel outside is that, before it makes you to know about other, makes you to know more about yourself. It makes you to know who are you, where exactly you stand and to where you want to go
The best thing about travel is that, it makes you to see many places; it put you in many situations just to locate your place and situation exactly. To know how much you are strong and for how long you were weak. How swift you move forward or backward. Or for how long you stay running in the same big empty circle, fast or slow.
I have got a chance to go to Perpignan city in southern France. This was my first time in Franc or in European country ever. It is my chance to see Paris, Eiffel tower, the Louvre and Mona Lisa.
But unlucky, there was a technical problem in the plane, so I missed the programmed two days in Paris. But that gives me the chance to know come close to Parisian train station system. In my country there is no train station at all, despite our Ex- president keep telling those who are against him that they missed the train. But this is another story.
The train station in Paris is sooo huge, and what is scarier is that all people know exactly where to go. And no body asked any body. And if they are lost, I think, they will open there phones asking GPS or Google. And to make things scarier there was no employees to buy tickets. Technology and Machines!
But I made it, thanks to all kind French people who help me and explain things to me "in English". Thanks a to all Arab migrants women whom just seeing their scarf and asking them in Arabic relief my soul. And again thanks to France for their diversity and accepting the others. By their help I manage to catch my group just before they take the train to Perpignan to start my journey
I notice that French women are so chick and I think that there efforts should be appreciated and be admired as it is not an easy task. Ask me. So as we have a final assignment to take ten photos of French women, my project focused on the beauty of their hands.

The best thing about travel out side is it makes you to know that it is not about what our country needs to be like what we want it to be. It is more about what we our country needs from us to be as we want it to be . The best thing about travel outside is it makes you to love other countries so much just to feel how much your country loves you
