The Norfolk Broads
The Broads is a network of (mostly) navigable rivers and lakes in the English counties of Norfolk and Suffolk. The lakes, known as broads, were formed by the flooding of peat workings.

What Lies Beneath
I often wonder what lies beneath the deep waters of the Potomac. A abundantly deep body of putrid dark flowing smelly river of vast hidden secrets. I shudder to imagine the creepy images that flood through My inner being.

Yellow Mountains
No grasp over the native language, a trek in the freezing winter with nothing other than normal running shoes to support me, and that, too, with total strangers - All these things didn't stop me from getting out of my comfort zone when I came to know that my days in Shanghai were numbered. Suddenly I wanted to experience all it had to offer. So one Friday evening, I wrapped up my work early and caught a bus to Yellow Mountain in Huangshan. With my zero direction sense and Mandarin knowledge, catching the bus itself seemed to be an achievement.

When green, ancient Arabia drew early people from Africa
On the Arabian Peninsula, dry sand ridges stretch far into the distance. Nonetheless, another review recommends that these desert districts were once totally different. It's logical they were green with plants. Researchers accept they pulled in early people and enormous creatures, for example, hippopotamuses moving out of the African mainland to remain at antiquated lakes.

Green Horns
It takes a lot of effort to create greenery in urban spaces today. Verdant strips weave between brick, mortar, and concrete to proudly bear the name, “lung spaces.” Back when we were little, everything was green and so were we.

The Wonder of Beautiful Meaningless Things
Does a flower bloom because it is meaningful? Yes, no, maybe both. Sometimes we confuse meaningfulness with usefulness. The usefulness of a flower is reproduction. It protects the plant’s reproductive organs, attracts pollinators, and bears fruits and seeds. We’ve all been taught this basic plant biology lesson somewhere in our elementary education, but probably haven’t thought about it again since.

The Other Way
I am so exhausted that I find it hard to write. I have been traveling all day and wearing a mask for more than 10 hours, barely able to breath. I got out of bed at 430AM in Philadelphia, rushed to the airport, and have been going ever since. Here, in CR, it is only 8PM, but my body knows it is really 10. I have a choice...to try to stay up until my normal bedtime or to just go to bed right now and possibly wake up in the middle of the night. That really isn’t a choice for me.

Kedarkantha Trek, Uttarakhand
Kedarkantha is a breathtaking walk that allows photographers to capture the magical snow falling from the pine trees. The 'I rule the world' position at the summit of Kedarkantha Summit would make a fantastic profile picture, and the breathtaking vistas in the background will make your friends envious!

Northern Lights
In the explosion of colored light, the northern light collides with the electrons in the atoms, and the electrons return to their original low-energy state, a process that releases photons (light particles) known as auroras after a collision. Scientists say that their bright colors are caused by the pleasing gases from the earth's atmosphere, especially oxygen, which emits the green color of the aurora borealis.
