Wurthing, Wyrthyng, Worthing

 Wurthing, Wyrthyng, Worthing was totally worth it.

(this is how worthing welcomed me in its arms)

The clouds of memories pass over my head  each time I look at these pictures , This place is more than just a little town by the sea , it is the place where I left a part of my heart . As  time goes by I long for it more and more , I wish I can go back in time  just  to stay a little bit longer  in its arms , to linger on its shores ,to take a walk in the  Pier ,  to watch a movie in the Dome , to enjoy the fresh breeze  of its summery days or even to enjoy the sound of raindrops during its rainy nights.

You might be wondering why is it so special to me , well it gave me a new breath  and pushed me forward to discover a new kind of love , that is to say the love of travelling and embracing every new destination that I will  take in the future , but Worthing will always have a special place in my heart.
