on travelling
Filed Under Category Travel by titanium
Travelling is an interesting way to spend 3 months- as is the packing up that comes before that. Hence the lack of blog posts, twitter updates or emails.
We are about half way through now, and we’ve made some interesting observations:
- In the USA, the public toilets try and have at least one thing automated. This could be auto water, hand dryers, auto towel dispensers or of course, the un-nerving auto-flush.
- Lots of places offer free wifi in the United States.
- Everyone has a look alike, and that look alike lives in Canada. These aren’t identical twins, just people with similar features to people you know back home- perhaps with a different hair colour, etc.
- Northern Ireland is really nice, really quiet and green.
- You should always check the weather forecast before sleeping in a tent. (Learned this in Republic of Ireland.)
- If you are in the UK in “nice” weather, expect road works.
Over all, I like travelling, though I am looking forward to getting back to Australia.
