I Got Freshly Pressed!
9 November 2012
My recent photo essay,
Kindergartens in the Middle of Nowhere,
got featured on Freshly Pressed today.
It’s a great honor and I would like to share it with all those who continue to follow A Traveller’s Tale, those who clicked the follow tab after viewing the article at FP, and those who continue to leave likes and encouraging comments on my posts.
THANK YOU!
YOU INSPIRE ME!
Also, SPECIAL THANKS goes to fellow WordPress blogger, Jane Lurie of Jane’s Lens, for submitting a link to this article at Child Care Information Exchange yesterday. Your selfless act not only brought in a huge number of viewers to my site but also inspired many early childhood professionals all over the world as they learned about the Ger Kindergarten Project and gained a glimpse of the life of these adorable kids out there in the Mongolian steppes.
The drag of endless mental work in a strange land takes its toll. Fatigue can kill so petty escapades provide hopeful deviations from the brewing madness. An aging DSLR keeps good company to a walk around the neighbourhood, a short drive to a scenic place, or a silent recollection in a quiet nook granting that the host community and the elements of nature would allow one a safe passage to solitude and contemplation. Loneliness quickly turns to joy when something exciting gets captured by the cam’s shutter then set free into the laptop’s screen followed by electric words that rush from the fingers to the keyboard in an effort to describe the moment. Alas, the brain is alive once again!
Well done! You deserve it. Your photos are always amazing to look at.
