World Traveler’s Room

I can tell by looking at the room that a world traveler lives there. It is a unique room full of foreign things. While pulling a Japanese-style sliding door, I smell a thick aroma of coffee from Brazil all through the room. On my right hand side is a hard table. There are one digital camera, two single-lens reflex cameras and a number of rolls of films. Next to the cameras and films, there is a large square-type gray frame brought from Japan. Inside the frame, there are lots of photos taken from all over the world by the world traveler. There are some moldy postcards as well. These are even giving off stench. Most of postcards are written about the traveler’s mood of the moment while he was traveling in that city. On the left side of the frame, a large size world map is placed on the white wall. On the map, there are some flags there. The traveler has visited places where the flags are placed. These places include Berlin, New York, London, Melbourne, Beijing, and so on. Beside the map, there is an Italian-style bed which is a gift from an Italian woman. The traveler helped her when he went to Italy. I feel great when lying on this soft bed. Under the bed, there are several WorldTravel magazines and flight information from all over the world. I open one of magazines, and find that lots of notes are scribbled in the margins there. Most of notes are about something the traveler needs to know, such as the weather, the train routine, the fee, and so on. Then on my left side there is a medium bookshelf. There are lots of souvenirs, including a basketball, a small wooden chair and a ticket. The basketball is signed by the well known NBA star Michael Jordan. The small wooden chair is made in Sweden. It is a commemoration of the traveler’s being in twenty countries, and Sweden is the 20th country. At last, and the most precious one for the world traveler is the ticket for the opera, Cats in the Broadway while in his first time going abroad.
