Across oceans, continents, cultures, and time zones, every journey leaves a footprint.
Footprints Across the Oceans presents an extraordinary voyage through poetry, personal reflection, photography, and observation. Inspired by N. Satianathan's remarkable journey across the Pacific and towards South America, the book follows a passage from Yokohama through Hawaii, Tahiti, Easter Island, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Brazil, before returning safely to Singapore.
Composed by Prof. Dr Siva Mahendran, the poems capture much more than geographical movement. They explore friendship, ageing, courage, remembrance, nature, cultural discovery, and the quiet emotions experienced while travelling across vast oceans.
Photographs and visual records bring the destinations to life, while images of birds create a symbolic connection between land, sea, freedom, and migration. Together, these elements transform the book into both a travel record and a poetic meditation on life.
Written for travellers, poetry readers, nature lovers, and anyone who believes that meaningful adventures can begin at any stage of life, Footprints Across the Oceans is a celebration of friendship, resilience, curiosity, and the enduring human desire to discover what lies beyond the horizon.
