Savaged by the travel bug

Yes, it’s true. Savaged, chewed up and swallowed right from the outset.
From my very first trip abroad, I was smitten. I loved exploring the differences in cultures and how it opens your eyes to an environment and at the same time refreshes your perception of your home. It’s completely addictive, unpredictable and incredibly romantic. Ink Caravan would not be complete without this theme somewhere near its heart. So this is the first of many posts on exotic places in story, illustration, photography or ephemera.
