"The Impossible Map: a Poetic View of Travel"
Travel is a metaphorical odyssey, an exploration of self and the world, devoid of fixed coordinates.
This map transcends geography, weaving through the landscapes of time and space.
Within the folds of the Impossible Map lies the paradox of travel: the more we explore, the less we truly know. Wisdom, it tells us, is found in embracing the vast unknown.
In this journey, we surrendered rigid plans in favor of fluidity, understanding that travel is a philosophical exploration. The destinations aren't fixed points but ever-evolving states of self-discovery.
The map is the journey, and we are forever wandering, wondering, and being transformed.
