The last few days were eventful. I had some catching up to do. Last week was super busy, but I am not complaining.

Australians get their dental work done in Vietnam; daughters have (almost) the same inheritance rights as sons in Africa. An emergency heart transplant…so much is going on in this world. All newsworthy, in my humble opinion.
Wild orchids in the UK – 100-meter robot race vs human time – Wild penguins – 15,000-year-old snake bones and so much more. This world is an interesting place. We can learn so much from each other.
Collecting ‘good news’. It doesn’t get better than that.
How much more interesting this world becomes when you ignore the front pages of magazines and newspapers. It’s almost like the ‘real life’ stays hidden behind all the sensationalism.
Sometimes, when you look at the bigger picture, your own problems don’t seem so big anymore. Maybe that’s what World News is supposed to do? To bring things back into perspective?

The wildfires have now spread to Africa. These developments are terrifying, and knowing that so many still believe that climate change is just a hoax truly frightens me.
I hope you will never hear bombs, child
and hide in bunkers for hours, sometimes even days
