About ailsapm

Hi there! I’m Ailsa Prideaux-Mooney. I’ve lived in many places, and travelled to many more. I had a lot of fun getting there and being there, wherever there happened to be at the time. I climbed a castle wall in Czesky Krumlov, abseiled down cliffs to go caving in the west of Ireland, slept on the beach in Paros, got chased by a swarm of bees in Vourvourou (ok that wasn’t fun, but it was exciting), learned flower arranging in Tokyo, found myself in the middle of a riot in Seoul, learned to snowboard in Salzburg, got lost in a labyrinth in Budapest and had my ice cream stolen by a gull in Cornwall. And I’m just getting started. If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, I’d love you to follow my travelogue - wheresmybackpack.com - and remember, anyone who tries to tell you it’s a small world hasn’t tried to see it all.

    I couldn’t find a translation for “Gänsemarsch”…

      Oh sooo cute!!! – as far as the translation goes, how about March of the Geese – like March of the Penguins but with feathers 🙂 If you were using it to describe people walking we’d say “walking in single file” in English. xxx

    I love that final quote. The only march that made me nervous here was the Vikings. Nothing good comes out of a gathering of Vikings.

      So true, they all ended up in a gory pile of ex-Vikings after a very dramatic battle. 🙂 Yes, that quote resonates with me too, it is worth remembering. ❤

    Hi Ailsa – LOVE the pink hats in your masthead for this one, as well as your other march photos. They’re very creative versions of marches.

    My submission has a wildlife sort of woman’s march, but unfortunately no pink hat: https://babsjeheron.wordpress.com/2017/01/26/beautiful-great-blue-herons-environmental-protection-gig/

    Best, Babsje
