Taking a short break

Came back to hometown, ate some home cooked food, read a lot of old National Geographic magazines and slept for so long.

One thing about National Geographic magazine is that, you will never get bored of it. There is something new to learn everyday, even though we are reading the past issues. For example, recently I went to Sulaymaniah in Iraq, I did not know much about them before I went there. Even now, I still don’t know much about that place. I thought it is just like part of Iraq, but they are not. They don’t consider themselves to be part of Iraq. I saw an article in NGS dated back in 2002, they covered an article on Kurdistan. It allows me to learn so many things about them. Last time probably when I read it, I thought, gee, what’s this place? Why would I care? But after I have been there, it seems to be so much interesting reading what others have written about that place.
