I took the bus to work this morning. Sitting next to a young African woman I could feel the smell from food and spices not common in my kitchen. Exotic, tickling my tastebuds, sending me images of food and travels, making my morning filled with dreams of travels to come, far away places I not even know exist........oh, there is always so much ahead, so much new land to explore. My world map still have so many uncoloured areas, waiting for the rainbow.
I left the bus together with a young South American mother and her little son. On the pavement we passed an Asian woman, she looked up at the South American one, smiled, nodded and said "Good morning" (in English). I forgot snow and ice, I forgot the still chilly temperatures and kept on with my mind travel around the world.
Thank you new inhabitants of Trondheim for introducing me to new tastes, colours, songs and smiles. Thank you for bringing the world to my doorstep.
