Travel is very useful and it exercises the imagination. All the
rest is disappointment and fatigue. Our own journey is entirely imaginary. That
is its strength. It goes from life to death. People, animals, cities, things,
all are imagined. It’s a novel, simply a fictitious narrative.
Journey to the End of the Night
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
The rotation of hometown and outland is recognition of the sense of belonging. I take this purposeless short-term migration as a common status of my life, putting myself, and my own observations and thoughts into the narrative of travel. I try to create stories with every insignificant experience. These stories are about the difference of landscapes of long-distance regional span and the convergence of phenomena under the trend of globalization, as well as the tininess and incapability of individuals. Travel is connected to myself, to my weakness, dreams and illusions. Travel and its stories are imagined, they are just a fragile bubble.
