Stares

There are a lot of people in the world who think travel is about visiting famous sites and touring around. Those things aren’t necessary bad but for me that can get real boring. I like to walk as far away from those tourist sites and put my self in places where I’m completely out of place. Often these areas have never see foreigners and don’t get to interact with them. For me I know I’m in the right place when everyone is staring at me. Not an angry stare but rather a friendly questioning of why I’m there. I get to exchange a simple smiles with the locals and see them going about there daily life. I buy things from their little shops and sometimes we get to talk and sometimes we even connect on Facebook or Instagram. Walking the side streets of Calcutta, India today for 8 miles I didn’t pass a single tourist but I did pass some very welcoming and friendly locals!!! Next time you find yourself in another country please do yourself a favor and leave those tourist sites and walk to the side streets or outskirts and actually experience those the place. You won’t regret it and you never know how God will use you!
