Foreign places

PROMPT March 8th

Where are some unusual places you’ve been? What was the most interesting or surprising thing you learned or discovered about those places?

I think India was the most unusual place we visited. We went there for many weeks, just back packing around. We were well into our sixties when we embarked on that particular journey and both my husband and I lost a lot of weight. It was the humidity, the food and the exhaustion combined which made us lose weight, but the experience was worth it. We needed a holiday when we got home!
We loved Thailand though. We were travelling through the whole country for seven weeks. We slept in twenty different places, non of them very salubrious! Little huts on the beach for ten dollars a night in Phuket. The year later these same huts were washed away in the Tsunami.
