Travel theme: Precious

Posted on June 5, 2017 by ailsapm

It would appear that all around the world, from Paris to Pittsburgh, people are cotttoning onto what’s really precious and worth protecting. Whether or not it’s too late, only time will tell, but here are a few things I think are precious. Clean water, like the stunning waters of this unnamed waterfall in the heart of the Cascades.

Fresh air, brought to you courtesy of trees like this one high up on Washington Pass.

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.
