    Kembara Trans-Siberian Railway | Jauh Perjalanan Luas Pengalaman

You and I change, people change all through the months and years but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely.
