Title: The Slums of Atlantis Post by: Madman on June 20, 2016, 11:38:05 PM The Slums of Atlantis (http://nocache-nocookies.digitalgott.com/gallery/19/3195_20_06_16_11_38_04.jpeg) (http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=19349) http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=19349 I've been travelling a lot lately. One of the places I frequented was somewhere in the southeast of Europe. Although quite different from what I'm used to, I eventually started to like the place. Sometimes I even liked the people... I had to travel daily from A to B (or more accurately from B to D) and back and after a couple of weeks knew several routes to go there. Sometimes I chose the wrong itinerary and ended up in a heavy pile of traffic. One of these days I decided to turn left to dodge the rest of the traffic jam. I felt as if I had had fallen off the world and entered a new one. The traffic was gone, but this was a world where nobody should live. The houses were built from corrugated steel or abandoned packaging. Waste was everywhere. This was not a refugee camp, but a part of daily life. I felt ashamed when I realized this was also part of Europe. This one is for the people living there |
