Hi, my name is Faruk. I am from Leeds (UK).

I love to travel and this seems a great way to keep in touch with your friends/family and share your thoughts and photos of your trips.

In terms of travelling my dream is to travel all the corners of the globe. The world is a huge place but it feels as if it's getting smaller and smaller in many ways. Travelling definately broadens your mind, experiencing new cultures, people, languages, food etc

My very first trip abroad on my own was to West Germany when I was 16. I had some relatives living in Stuttgart where I spent 2 weeks. I have since been to a number of places in France (Paris, Strasbourg), Spain (Barcelona, Ibiza), Italy (Rome, Milan, Venice, Lake Garda), Netherlands (Amsterdam, Rotterdam), Belgium (Brussels, Brugge), Luxembourg, Germany (Berlin, Franfurt, Stuttgart), Cyprus (Paphos, Aya Napa), India (New Delhi, Kolkata, Ahmedabad), Pakistan (Islamabad, Lahore, Karach), Bangladesh (Dhaka, Chittagong, Khulna, Sylhet), Saudi Arabia (Jeddah, Makkah, Medina), Czech Republic (Prague), Abu Dhabi and Dubai (UAE) and most recently Madrid in Spain.

I feel very fortunate and blessed in many ways. I hope my travels continues. I hope to travel to the States and Australia in the next few years. Turkey and North Africa are also on my agenda but when am I going to have the time to travel to all the countries that I want to visit....hope you enjoy reading my blog!!!!
