Globes and maps have always been some of my favorite things. I still remember sitting in the backseat as a kid, watching my parents unfold paper maps on road trips, tracing routes with their fingers. Years later, in my apartment in Beijing, I had a big framed world map on the wall—a constant reminder of the places I’d been and the ones I dreamed of visiting. Now, in Chiang Mai, I’ve got a globe on my desk that lights up. It’s not just decoration; it’s a little piece of wonder, reminding me of how vast and interconnected the world is.
