Transition

While the intention of starting this blog was to transcribe my vivid thought processes onto the web, I have had a change of mind. Whenever I am perusing blogs online, it's mainly blogs filled with a plethora of colorful images that catch my interest; I find that you can learn much more through both pictures and words than just words alone (in the case of blogs. I liked the version of Harry Potter in my head more than the movie). So I'm happily going to change this blog to a semi photo blog.

Being a travel enthusiast, I always think about going to different places and blogging my adventures to the world. The image of such a blog in my mind is always filled with amazing photographs of breathtaking scenery and delightful little places in the corners of remote towns. I realized just recently however, that I don't have just to travel to other countries to explore the world. Few people actually take time to be a part of the city that they live in and until now I have been in that same boat. I rarely explored my birth country Sri Lanka even though I travelled there every year. Other than the everyday spots I didn't bother to venture into the depths of Dubai, a city I spent 17 years of my life in and now even though I have been living in Charlotte for 3 years I can't really say I've seen much (this is partly due to the fact that I don't have a car!). With only a month to go before I head out to Lyon, France for a year, I have decided to do as much as I can in Charlotte and satisfy my guilty conscience.

So right after this post is my first blog on the city I live in :)
