My time in Seville is shorter than it usually is in any given destination. I have had to choose between seeing some amazing things on this first visit. I knew about this place before I arrived and actually purchased my tickets weeks ago. Dive into the Royal Alcazar of Seville with me and have an …
Needing to escape the confines of the city, I looked at my map to see where I could hike to that would get me into nature. Finding two options, I did both of these small expeditions on different days, in the early morning hours. Hiking into the Budva countryside offers amazing views of the bay. …
One of the things I did not want to miss, on this first trip to Ubud, was to explore the majestic rice patties that I have seen so many pictures of on social media. There is one specifically that is within walking distance of the town. Walking thru the Kajeng rice fields in Ubud is …
I decided on a day trip from Osaka and it was going to be on a single sunny day in the forecast. For my trip, I was taking two trains, and heading out towards Nara. This ancient city is located between Osaka and Kyoto. Having fun at the Nara Deer Park was how I spent …
As I wander the streets in this little seaside town, I have to wonder at all of the animals I have seen here! What a delight to bump into these beautiful creatures and a surprise for me. Not just cats and dogs as per usual, but other more interesting beings. Finding animals at Kamala Beach …
Okay that is a bit of click bait for sure, but not false. 🐵 Let me explain. Looking for something free to do, and that required a work out, I decided to climb Monkey Hill just outside of Old Town. I knew there was a chance of seeing some wildlife, I just didn’t expect it …

Having been here for over a month now, I have walked extensively around many parts of the city. Being a huge fan of street art and graffiti, I look for it everywhere. Most of what I have seen has been centred in or near the pedestrian walk, through the centre of town. If you admire …
Y’all know how much I love animals and stop to talk to just about anything I see. Well, I couldn’t leave Croatia without showing all of the cute cats, dogs & critters in Split that I encountered over the past month. Cats Oh my, there are quite a few cats around town! I saw none …
I didn’t have time to visit this gallery on my previous trip to Rome in 2018. So it was on my list of places to go this time. I purchased the 15 Euro ticket on line and booked an opening time slot of 9am. A tour of the Doria Pamphilj Gallery is definitely worth exploring …
Well I would be remiss if I left this beautiful country without a post on the cats & other friendlies of Malta that I have come across in my two weeks here. I have to say, there has not been an abundance of animal life that I have encountered here. I’m feeling a bit forlorn …
One of the reasons I love Mexico is the uninhibited use of bright vivid colours everywhere you look. It makes the environment feel lively and jovial and just so darn happy. The amazing murals all around Puerto Vallarta are one of the aspects adding to this city’s beauty. I never tire of walking around and …
