Travel - Time for Reflection

I dread long business trips now, especially to uninteresting cities with very packed work meetings in office. It used to be more interesting when I could visit real people's homes for my work.

Yet, jetlag, flight waiting time, insomnia provides a great timeout to reflect on life. Being away from my usual surroundings often allow me to see my life from another perspective, reassessing my priorities.

I am in Frankfurt now. Not the most happening or beautiful city, but strangely, the squares, the fresh air, expressionless faces, slow walking pace amidst a mix of old and new (yet uninspiring architecture) calms my mind.
