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.
Lived in the UK for a while - Squirrels, and the fact that the church in the town we lived in was built before ANY humans set foot in New Zealand
It’s not very common to see squirrels in Japan but they’re all over the place in the states. I was hiking in the woods with a group and one of the Japanese people spotted a squirrel and told everyone so they could have a look. Where I’m from maybe you’d point out a deer or rabbit or something (although those are pretty common too), but it’s pretty much impossible to not see a squirrel or chipmunk if you go outside.
Damn, that’s an old church, I know there are a few still standing from around the Norman conquest
So who built the church? The emus?
I had to be the only person in Central Park in NYC excitedly taking photos of squirrels when I was there. They were everywhere.
