Watching The World Go By In Paris
Few cities embrace the pleasure of watching the world go by more than Paris. No wonder why writers from all corners of the globe have come to the ‘City of Lights’ to be inspired to reach their creative goals. If you’re a keen observer as any good writer should be, you’ll see all walks of life come through Paris each day. Whether it’s a starry-eyed tourist with a camera in their hand, a bookkeeper plying his trade by the Seine River, or a street music performer trying to earn a Euro or two. Many cities are great for people watching or just seeing daily life transpire in front of your eyes, but Paris is different from the others because you are allowed to slow down fully to take it all in.

Portobello Road
I have a confession. I wouldn't say I liked markets for a long time, even though I used to love going occasionally with my mum as a child. I'd bug her the day before and promised I'd be on my best behaviour. I'd be super excited when she would say yes. While the rest of the family was sleeping, Mum and I would set off early the following morning.

Luzerne, Switzerland
A few months ago, I had the opportunity to travel and enjoy the beautiful lakeside city of Luzern (Lucerne) in Switzerland with my family. I had traveled through the area before when I drove from Germany to Italy but never had the opportunity to stop and appreciate the area's beauty.

How a Mysterious 'Ancient' Artifact Turned Out to Be a 1920s Spark Plug"
In February 1961, three adventurous rock enthusiasts were hunting for geodes near Olancha, California, when they stumbled upon something quite unusual. They took their finds home and cut into it, expecting to see the usual mineral formations. Instead, they discovered a cylindrical object inside that looked like it was made of porcelain. Inside this object was a metal shaft surrounded by a hexagonal sheath of copper and some unidentified substance. Their imaginations ran wild with possibilities—was this an artifact from a hyper-advanced ancient civilization like Atlantis, a relic from time travelers, or maybe a gift from extraterrestrial beings?

Roman London
Another Section Of The London Wall Roman London, known as Londinium, was founded by the Romans around AD 43 as a strategic settlement on the River Thames. It rapidly grew into a significant trading and administrative centre for the Roman Empire, connecting Britain with the rest of the Roman world. The city was laid out in a grid pattern, with major roads like Watling Street and Ermine Street converging at Londinium, facilitating trade and communication throughout Britannia.

Attractions in Annapurna Region of Nepal
Two of Nepal's most famous trekking destinations, the Annapurna and Everest regions, offer very different experiences. The Everest region is said to be rough and the home of Mt. Everest, with harder trekking routes and a more up-close experience of the Sherpa culture, making it ideal for would-be explorers looking for a bit of an increase.

Uncovering Surprising Facts and Traditions from Around the World
Before I started teaching English online, I had lived in five countries, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, the United States, and Costa Rica - mostly English-speaking Western cultures. While I enjoyed learning about each culture, it was when I began teaching that I truly immersed myself in the factoids that were being presented daily.
