While traveling can be a very personal experience, sometimes certain encounters can provoke thinking and raise issues that lead to reflection, which could be universal. This book invites you to "taste and see that the Lord is good" through textual narrative and photos presentation for a journey of faith involving five senses and more. East and West, North and South: A Journey of Discovery is about food and culture, history and art, religion and cultural differences. With a theme of peace and harmony between man and nature, among humans, with animals, and more importantly, a connection with God who is the source of life and peace. Virginia H. Y. Kwok takes the readers for an engaging journey at intellectual, philosophical, emotional, spiritual, and aesthetic levels. In a world of endless conflicts and violence around the globe, to rethink about the high cost of wars and meaning of true peace might be both important and urgent for all. By tasting the unique food in parts of Europe, Russia, and Australia, special cultures are explored through the lens of history along with reflections and questions for further inquiry and spiritual growth.
