The world fits in a suitcase, yes go. There will always be an unbeliever who thinks it is not possible to put in the luggage summits Guadarrama, the beauty of Tuscany, the magic of the Nile or the leopard territory in the Karakorum. But of course possible. And plenty site, much room. Enough to make room for the shooting stars of Ouagadogou, the masquerade Cairo, Road sentries Angola and sentimental radiography Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar.

Sure some doubt todavían. I confess that we, at first, also. But only until we understood that, Travel before leaving, beyond torturing what to pack (inevitably, always forget something) It is obliged to reserve some space to carry the world on luggage, the necessary curiosity to confront horizons and borders without stupid prejudices or more labels than bottles of wine and beer to go collecting along the way. That day, Xavier, Daniel and myself we realized that if, that the whole world fits in a suitcase.

We dream pop the whole world, without being anything, with its people and their stories, with stone paths and muddy soles and always different horizons

And get him whole dream, without being anything, with its people and their stories, with stone paths and muddy soles and always different horizons. Del Lower Zambeze a Sumatra; the cold steppes of Siberia to Choquequiraw, Machu Picchu unknown; the end of the enchanted world of Baracoa the mythical Cape Horn or a prison without bars Mae Ra Moe, in Thailand; circular time Manono, Samoa, the grave of Shackleton in Antarctica.

Surprisingly, despite the hodgepodge of landscapes and the succession of glances spread around the globe, each had its place and kept intact its idiosyncrasy. That encouraged us to continue filling the suitcase. Because we did not want to stop history include Indian who moved to Google Earth; Rattle sensual train between Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, one Sri Lanka; the kiss of God at the foot of Annapurnas; Arcane entourage of Papua; the echoes of the death of Jodhpur, in India; the sounds of a beech forest in Iran; the words of the Black Ester Chiloe; the echoes of the utopia of Tata Vasco in Michoacan; the stars go out in Ethiopia and the secrets of Manu in Peru.

We have told the world in more than a thousand stories through the eyes of many people. In our luggage still there was room

But there was too much world to embrace and only three looks to portray. We found few. needed more. Now we knew, Surprising as it may seem, the whole world fits in a suitcase, We felt the need to peek at all possible windows. He had to choose. In more than four years www.viajesalpasado.com We have told the world in more than a thousand stories through the eyes of many people. In our luggage still there was room.

Everyone thought yes, that the world had seen, lived and written VAP fit in a suitcase, even if he had to tighten a bit

None put conditions, there was no sign any paper. The word, as before, It was more than enough.
