Even when the year is dying feel obliged to improvise balances, in VAP has always liked to make plans more. 2011 will, God rest his soul, and 2012 and gives us 365 days to dream, next to nothing.
This travel magazine and illusions is VaP. was born almost two years as a window you look out in search of new horizons, not necessarily far; of other people you recognize, in other clothes, our own fears and insecurities; of exciting crossroads; of hikers traveling light and full of curiosity; common stories drowned by the distance; sometimes forgotten epics; Travel to the past, in sum.
With the year about to pack, do not want to remember the boundaries that we have already crossed, but of which we are about to cross, of those paths go left without regretting that, perhaps, would not ever. In Patagonia. In Africa. I'm Alaska. In the Himalayas. In many places. We accumulate, especially, we have outstanding travel, a list that grows as you traveling the world, which is extremely encouraging. We have never understood those who, after completing an old dream added as an epitaph: "Now I can die in peace I". Meet the ultimate dream is the first step towards self-destruction. That is not, course, the spirit that encourages those who do VaP.. People like Javier, who has traveled to more than a dozen African countries for a year and half and still dreams of returning to Africa. Or as Daniel, that after two years traveling the globe from one end to accumulate the same world craving the look. Travellers like Gerardo, Miquel, Juan Ramón, Eduardo, Enrique and Ricardo.
Leaving Ethiopia Harar wanting to return for; Uganda, mulling a trip to the Okavango; of the Torres del Paine
Leaving Ethiopia Harar wanting to return for; Uganda, mulling a trip to the Okavango; of the Torres del Paine, turning the reason that we do not approach the Chalten; of the Tibetan Plateau, doliéndonos of trekking we could not do. When a path ends, another looms. It has to be. So at least for us. Peering at the next hill, ultimately, to see what's on the other side.
The end of the year are prone to melancholy dates, lurking ailment that requires us to take two steps back before you can take one forward. The waves of time is determined to restore some of those experiences that still hurt us, like those old letters treacherous raised in a drawer when you least expect.
We would like to 2012 We gave away fortune sunrise at Machu Pichu, an old plan with a great friend; that the new year would allow us to trace the Niger to the legendary Timbuktu; stepping the last Spanish colonies; dawn on a remote island; Sri Lanka tour; return to Nepal; settle scores in Guatemala; see die the day by the Ganges; confused in Wales horizons; complete the sacred Mount Kailash kora; reach Ujiji (Dr. Livingstone I suposse?)… And count on VaP., course, it will start the year with renewed impetus, time will explain in detail, with the same illusions, with identical goals. If we can not achieve any of those efforts in the coming 365 days, within a year goodbye at least 2012 with the same dreams and others, surely, be added along the way.
Plans travelers wish all readers of VaP. are met in 2012!
