“To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world."----Freya Stark
During my around-the-world journey, I was away for a total of 1 month and 11 days. I was thousands of miles away from home. But, I felt at home and was secured because of these accommodations. They were my home away from home. They provided me comfort, security, and more importantly, a much needed sleep and rest-to rejuvenate the body, to recover from hours of flying, long distance bus and train rides, and hours of walking and exploring sites.
They are part of the reasons why I enjoyed my Tuyok. I am a simple man. A nice, comfortable accommodation makes me happy.
In traveling, rest and recovery is very important.
