POSTCARDS | 32,000 Feet Above China

Friday, October 21, 2011

The Himalayas from Above

Travelling 794 kilometer per hour, aboard a KLM plane bound for the Netherlands, between Tientsin and Chendou in China. 10 hours left ‘til Amsterdam and tired of writing, I opened my window and there they were, majestic snowcapped mountain peaks floating above an ocean of soft white clouds. I have only seen these in movies and travel documentaries; I cannot believe I am actually witnessing this.

Postcards is a new segment I’m doing in Lakad Pilipinas. I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a netbook for my travels. But I really don’t feel like doing full articles when I’m travelling since it takes too much time and I’d rather be exploring outside than be inside the hotel room, faced with a little LCD screen. So this is what I came up with, one photo posts with a few words for company. I’m hoping it’s enough to fill in the gaps when I’m out travelling and give flavor to my readers of my current whereabouts.
