I will look forward to this experience. By tonight, I will have packed my things again for another travel. Since when have you started traveling? I have always traveled since I got the job. It has allowed me to travel a lot. In fact, I have just received a letter requesting me to go North after I will have finished my assignment in the South. You men you will be traveling again? Actually, I had just arrived from the trip when this letter arrived. But

it did not bother me at all.Traveling has been a part of me. It has already conditioned my body and mind. Maybe, I would still travel even when I get old. At that time, I would have traveled thousands and thousands of miles. I might have reached distant lands like an adventurer has.

gone. Well, with the way things are, I think those things are very likely to happen.
