Due to my job, I fly relatively frequent across continents.
And I love this.
EVERY time, in the air, I have to think how lucky I am to have been able to see these all – to have seen those huge rivers in Russia; snows and fogs over the Alps; massive housing plots in China; crazy roads, woods, and villages in the middle of nowhere; and a thousand kinds of clouds and a thousand shades of blue… As Maugham has put it – beauty is an ecstasy; it is as simple as hunger, like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all…
