Faith of the Words
For some reason I chose demitourworld as a name to describe my next big travel.
As previously explained, a demi tour litterally would be half a tour that’s because I’ll travel from Nepal to Chad. It also means going back. There are different reasons. Usually a travel ends where it started, for my part it gives a bitter taste in the mouth. It was because Chad seen the birth of humankind as an anthropo-archeologist team discovered there the oldest human-like, he was christianized the place he was found : Toumaï. It is a Start on itself.
| Historically, man will travel from there to Europe and Asia, creating agriculture, writing, the wheel, the fire, civilisation, philosophy… For all these years spend to love and fight, man made himslef king of the Earth and now is on the edge to destroy it… Demi-tour. I don’t think it is that hopeless. |  |
Sometimes the road to the Oriental World is safe sometimes not. Marco Polo, Alexander the Great, Pierre Loti, Nicolas Bouvier (still alive!). All are great men for diminishing the field of our ignorance and destroying symbolic (or not!) borders. Some how the world is a wheel. |
It was the first Idea. To experience a mystical road passing by Byblos, Petra, Jerusalem, Jericho, Varanasi, Kathmandu, Sinaï, Damascus… To walk on this path as a free man, a traveller.
And a mosquisto bite postponed the journey for 6 Month and so has turned the road the other way round. Because in my dream the idealistic way was Chad towards Nepal. Matters effects Dreams but the Meaning on itself can’t change.
