In "His Life's Only Journey," we see the tender and loving relationship between a grandfather and his grandson.

Initially, the young grandson goes to the city to work. The job is tough, but the little boy dreams that he will fall in love with a beautiful princess and bring her to his village. Because that's how it always happened in the stories his grandfather told him, and his grandfather has traveled a lot; he is the wisest person in the world. The grandson, with childhood innocence, has complete trust in his grandfather's stories.

However, the reality is different... The young grandson slowly begins to realize that his grandfather has never actually traveled; that all the journeys he spoke of were imaginary, and that all the stories he told were stories of his imagination. The poor grandfather will only undertake his one and only journey of life after he passes away, a journey to the sky.

Trust, innocence, love for journeys that never happen, a grandmother who fusses a lot but always gets what she wants, dreams of beautiful princesses... All these elements blend sweetly in this very tender story by Vizyinos.
