Traveller’s Goodbye Gifts Exchange

Posted on February 17, 2017February 17, 2017by Amna Abdullah

“To say goodbye is to die a little.”  ― Raymond Chandler, The Long Goodbye Every day we meet people, hang out with them and then say goodbye. I call them the ‘Wayfarers of life’. They are not entirely constants although they might change into one at any given time, but basically they are there for […]
