In 2010 I undertook the most impressive , delightful, memorable journey, one that changed my life forever. I went to Syria and visited Damascus ( very different now) , Homs ( gone now), Hama ( partly destroyed) , Palmyra (almost completely destroyed and the people have left) , Saraqib ( destroyed) and Aleppo old city ( destroyed and dying) .
Left to wonder whether I am cursed to have this follow on my footsteps or blessed to have seen it all half a year before the revolution.
In 2011 I went back but was unable to move around safely and just visited Maloula from Damascus one day, and I don't know what has become of it now.
