Hello everyone,
Before we head up in this beautiful island of Bora Bora on the April 30th - May 1st, let me discuss to you the strange feeling of Deja vu.
Deja vu (literally "already seen") is the feeling of certainty that one has already witnessed or experienced a current situation, even though the exact circumstances of the prior encounter are unclear and were perhaps imagined. The scientific explanation that has mostly been accepted of deja vu is not that it is an act of "precognition" or "prophecy", but rather that it is an anomaly of memory, caused by a person getting a brief glimpse of an object or situation prior to full conscious perception, resulting in a false sense of familiarity. This then gives us the impression that an experience is "being recalled". The strange feeling of deja vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of "eeriness", or wat Sigmund Freud calls "the uncanny".
Your travel buddy,
Rinell :-)
