RE: Clothes maketh the traveller
You wrote this 5 days ago....it's a shame you didn't get more votes. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your post and felt like we were sitting having some Appelwein together while you told of your travels.
I giggled at your Alaskan "friends" debacle with being too hot - so funny. And by contrast you would definitely be freezing. I loved all of your stories from losing your luggage to having a cabbie get you to a boutique before closing to the store owner opening up the store for you. Charming, charming.
As you probably know, especially going to a climate change conference, 30C isn't that hot in Canada anymore - especially the more southern provinces. Similiar to southern Florida at times..and we have terrible humidity. ick.
The ending - "all I wanted was to get back to the airport and on the flight back home"...I know what that feels like :)
If I could make a suggestion....if you put spacing between paragraphs and even break up some of your paragraphs to highlight a whole sentence and added a picture to break up the compacted words - I think more people would have read this charming post and upvoted. I'd like to see you succeed with more upvotes because you put so much time into writing this and you have something to share.
Merci :)
I appreciate your response to my story. It is kind, thoughtful and also helpful. I shall certainly heed your advice. And I shall make a point of looking up your posts. Again, my sincere thanks.
You are very welcome. I am following you too and look forward to reading more of your adventures.
