4. I thank God never in the vicinity of any bombing … I was always there or sooner or later … in Barcelona I was there 1 week before the bombing on Rambla

     • This can be a very unpleasant feeling, my friend … it also made me lose when I heard of the attack, but I was walking there one week earlier

5. I read about your three fearful occasions and your long travel time with lot of interst and understanding. I have also traveled a lot over the years and being a marketing professional I have landed in some dangerous places. The only difference is you felt afraid once in your own country but I have many such memories in my own country. I have never faces any of such incidents in any foreign country though. Great images as always!

     • Probably you can afford to stop traveling but I love traveling and that’s why I am in marketing profession. Please don’t mind my typos which might notice in several of my posts and comments. (I notice them but there is no way I can correct them)
