The Humans by Akida

The Humans

Once in a while I get a feeling that I and my immediate surroundings are being broadcasted live on TV to aliens on other planets, on their discovery channels.

An alien David Attenborough would say over images of me eating a crab "Oh just look at the way the female carefully and skillfully pick the meat of this strange creature they call crab. This food is considered a delicacy on many parts of the Earth and many tribes have invented different ways of cooking it."

On a different episode they may focus on the human mating rituals. "The male pour hours and hours over these mechanical instruments called cars, they customise not only the outer shells but are also surprisingly highly advanced with the inner workings. The males will often gather in the middle of the night and have drag races, many experts consider it a ritualistic dance to attract the females."

"Humans also love to gather on what they call weekends, typically the 6th and 7th day of their weekly cycle. Males, females, old and young usually gather around markets, squares and shopping centers in more densely populate urban areas. Often there are events to keep the humans entertained, they like to watch one another and observe their own kind's various behaviours. Just like us, they do enjoy to observe."

NY LA by Akida

NY LA

Left, right, up and down.

In less than a week I'll head over to that side of the world and stay for a little less than 3 months. So that almost concludes my amazing 6 months in Europe, but I've yet much more to look forward to. I'll be traveling around US and Canada for a few weeks first, then stay put in NY for 1 month then travel to Cuba and Mexico before heading back home.

Looking forward to seeing and meeting everyone on that side of the ocean.
