Day: March 18, 2011

We know that we live in a global economy, but we don’t pay attention to it very often. We have clothes and food, and never ask how far they have travelled to get to us. Yet sometimes it hits us. I ordered a new laptop on a website recently. I can track its journey on the web.

It started somewhere in China a couple of days ago. It left Shanghai yesterday, and since then it has been through Korea, and is now in Kazakhstan. I’ll post the whole journey when it arrives.
