(TD)FDLTM is intertwines the literary contents of a travel diary with a visual backbone of snapshot images of identical timelines. The combination forms a meandering narrative, crisscrossing a vast spectrum of emotion, contemplation and amusement. Presented throughout the pages of the project is a subdued, melancholic journey of semi-consciousness in perpetual distraction, priviledged to be abroad yet unable to untangle oneself from the questions of home.
