A day of more questions than answers. I received a package from Japan today , a small protective envelope with some Japanese ink drawing nibs. It occurred to me that , again , I had no idea just what a journey this parcel would have taken to get to me .
Are post parcels considered cargo? What determines if it travels by air or sea? Size ? Point of origin? Destination logistics?
I am beginning to realise that this line of questioning is quite difficult to organise into coherent thoughts and avenues of enquiry. Where to start ? What lead to follow ? How not to get lost or distracted in the rabbit whole of information ?
Language and terminology are also proving to be an obstacle. I think a kind of ‘transport terms’ dictionary might be worth creating so I’d be able to actually understand the information presented. At times if feels like a foreign language, but I guess that is the same with any specialist field subject.
All for today
