Varanasi: Between Ritual and Routine

Hi there! First of all, thank you for stopping by. My name is Anna. I am from Poland, and traveling became one of my favorite hobbies. I graduate uni with master in law degree, but my life’s road is heading to an opposite direction from this career right now. I was very fortunate to visit more than 60 countries, but my goal is to see at least 100. It really is not about numbers, I just want to discover at least half of the world. What I love about traveling is mostly people I got to meet, to see how they are getting on a daily life, trying to understand why world stands as it does today. Not everyone can travel, even domestically, that’s why I am glad more and more people are taking their chances to do so, to understand and see that as much as we are all the same, not everyone is lucky to have what we do. I think understanding is a first step and hopefully not last.
