“I know that my achievement is quite ordinary. I am not the only man to seek his fortune far from home, and certainly I am not the first. Still, there are times I am bewildered by each mile I have traveled, each meal I have eaten, each person I have known, each room in which I have slept. As ordinary as it all appears, there are times when it is beyond my imagination.”
-Jhumpa Lahiri, Interpreter of Maladies

Hmmmmm. So true. Thanks for sharing
I really like Jhumpa Lahiri. Did you get around to reading The Namesake?
Haven’t yet but I’d love to. Do you know if there’s a copy floating around Bulgaria?
