"I recalled a friend named David saying that in the Middle Ages, people were often not defined by nationality but by where they traveled, because they shared the knowledge and information they learned from their travels with people they met. So, traveling was their identity.Individual identities are always a mix of all sorts of differences and varieties that are patched together somewhat. From the internet, books, and anywhere. We are all patchworks. Who isn’t?" - Ng Joon KiatMostre
