    My only regret walking

    I like talking about socks!! Someone on this forum suggested buying socks with a hideous colours. The socks are easily identifiable as yours when you are hanging them on a communal clothesline and people are less inclined to take them by mistake. Smart wool socks are my best foot friends and I...

    Spending time and money at IKEA so you don't have to!

    Oh, it's a bow tie! At first glance I thought that it was a bear, sporting a head bag and wearing a bra!

    Unbelievable run across Australia!

    That is very impressive! It reminds me of a local Canadian hero, Rick Hansen. He is a paraplegic who in the mid 80's wheeled his wheelchair 40,000 km and over 30 countries in two years to raise awareness of people with disabilities. An average of 85 km a day! He made a huge impact for change...

    Where do you carry your valuables?

    The only thing that I can add to this conversation is that I use a mnemonic to ensure that I have my valuables with me. Every time I leave a place where I have gone into my secured bag, I use the mnemonic "please prepare my cozy bed". The PPCT stands for Passports, Phone, Charger and tiny Book...

    Camino del Norte

    Thank you FreeWalker for posting this! I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and I look forward to more. The music was a perfect choice. Can you please tell me the name of the first piano piece. I cannot drag the name from my brain right now. It is a popular composition and often used in movies...

    Bus to Santiago airport

    Hi Teambergie, in 2019 there was a schedule in the plaza at the bus stop. I can't recall the directional position of the bus stop within the plaza. I got there early, lined up, bought my ticket from the ticket person and then boarded the bus when it came. Two people didn't want to buy a...
