GOING SOMEWHERE // Travel & Lifestyle

DREAM TRIPS and KEEPING SAFE

We all look forward to a trip or holiday, whether it is close to home or somewhere far away.

There are so many wonderful places to see and explore. Some places are more popular to visit and

have become a tourist mecca. Many people travel to the Asian countries such as Thailand or Philippines. It is known for its gorgeous beaches, friendly people and warm climate.

There are also many stray animals wandering around some areas.

Of course sometimes we like to feed or pet the animals.

I have a weakness for animals , so seeing a stray i would be one to try to feed or give it water.

For anyone that travels often to these places it is important to get vaccinated. This is something you can read about on most travel sites the recommended vaccinations needed. Much to my surprise

I have read in a recent news article it is also important to get a rabies shot: YES rabies.

Why? well in these countries there are many stray animals and some can carry the rabies virus.

So BEWARE of being bitten, scratched by ANY animal. If it does happen, wash the area well and go to the hospital immediately. Do not leave it to chance. Rabies can be deadly if left untreated.

So wherever you happen to travel or live , it is important to know.

HAPPY TRAVELS EVERYONE

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer.
