Amidst the quiet hum of the small town of Willow Creek, nestled beneath a canopy of ancient trees, there stood a carnival—an ephemeral spectacle that materialized only under the veil of night. Within its labyrinthine confines, where the scent of cotton candy mingled with the faint whispers of the wind, there lay a sinister secret—a ghost train that traversed the darkness, its passengers destined for a journey beyond the realms of the living.
The Many Faces of Berlin
Octoberfest is party time in Berlin and I just couldn’t get into it. I was sharing a long table with the locals in Alexander Platz, a huge outdoor plaza in the middle of the city while nursing a lager, four euros for the drink and another for the glass stein which I get back after returning it to the bar.

People will travel to different locations around the planet - across the entire planet Earth - for a variety of other interesting reasons.

If you had told eight-year-old me that one day I'd be living out my dream of travelling to different states and facilities to care for exotic animals, I would've been overwhelmed with a mix of joy and disbelief, thinking it was too good to be true.

New Writing Prompt #2
New Writing Prompt #2 If you could pack up and leave on vacation today, where would you be off to? If I could pack up and leave for vacation, right now, I would one hundred percent be going to a Disney theme park.

I have been dreaming, like Rapunzel, of leaving my metaphorical tower to go on a grand adventure through the surrounding kingdoms of the land.
