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.
Felt bad about purposefully letting her sweat a bit as the sun went down and I started a fire. At the same time I tried to tell her that merely speaking out loud would run off any animals larger than a lizard.
Later, she tried to throw me under the bus with my wife. Now I wish I had tortured her for real!
“Yeah… We’re gonna have to spend another hour here. I’m waiting to see that panther that was here last week.”
It’s a shame things that are exciting as kids become scary as adults, even when they don’t need to be. Sure, there can be risks, but we tend to over-exagerate them when we are unfamiliar.
My issue is heights. But only sometimes. Brains are wierd.
