I’ve only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they’re just kinda there.
Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I’d be taking for granted?
Pic unrelated.
But it also isn’t used in the fancy rich places simply because it’s expensive, it’s also because it’s beautiful.
I feel like it’s 80% the expense. If most rock was like that everybody would be looking for boring sandstone.
