The locals at the Souq, Qatar Qatar is still a country in its tourism infancy. Even the traditional central market, the Souq Waqif, is still a destination for the locals and not only for the tourists, as quite often it's the case in other major tourist destinations. Nowadays you visit a "local" market in Thailand and they sell the same stuff as in Australia....globalisation :( .. #gh5 #lumix @lumix_au .. #VisitQatar #qatar #doha #souq #souqwaqif #arabstyle #white #alley #wondering #travel #travelphotography #igtravel #vacationwolf #traveldeeper #RTWChat

This is the ultimate spot to swim, surf and sunbathe and this glorious stretch of golden sand has been voted the best beach in the country. In fact, visitors have also ranked it the second best beach in the South Pacific and among the top 25 beaches in the world according to Trip Advisor. . . . . . . . . . #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #BPMag #TakeMeBackpacking #surroundmewithwater #vacationwolf #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #dametraveler #roamtheplanet #BDTeam @purenewzealand #NZMustDo #beautifuldestinations #bucketlist #createexplore #earthfocus #exploreeverything #exploremore #exploretocreate #bestbeaches #getoutstayout #globetrotter #mtmanganui #lifeofadventure #lifeofadventure #liveoutdoors #mytinyatlas (at Mount Maunganui) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoysWoaB1ht/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=snnyvpvujqss

Raglan is a small beachside town located 48 km west of Hamilton, New Zealand. Perfect for any backpacker looking for a cool surf town experience. You also have Mt Karioi summit track, which is a 5-hour return hike through stunning native bush and a short drive out of Raglan is the majestic Bridal Veil Falls. . . . . . . . . . . . . #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #BPMag #TakeMeBackpacking #surroundmewithwater #vacationwolf #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #dametraveler #roamtheplanet #BDTeam #visitraglan #loveraglan #raglan23 @purenewzealand #NZMustDo #photooftheday #summer #sea #holiday #adrenaline #extremesports #clouds #adventuresports #travelling #paragliding #parapente #paraglider (at Raglan, New Zealand) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoswMT2BNql/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4402cejuzrs

Tui Birds, unique to New Zealand have two voice boxes and are known for their noisy, unusual call, different for each individual, that combine bellbird-like notes with clicks, cackles, timber-like creaks and groans, and wheezing sounds. Some of the wide range of tui sounds are beyond the human register. Tui will also sing at night, especially around the full moon period . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #BPMag #TakeMeBackpacking #surroundmewithwater #vacationwolf #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #dametraveler #roamtheplanet #BDTeam #birds #birdphotography #bird #birdsofinstagram #birding #birdwatching #canon #birdlife #bestbirdshots #birdstagram #birdlovers #birdphoto #nzmustdo @purenewzealand #bayofislands #tuibird @mybayofislands @newzealandguide (at Paihia, New Zealand) https://www.instagram.com/p/Boso4Ihhca8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=me8o2r6n8lfb

Cowabunga!! This was one of our most favorite sites in Laos: Kuang Si Waterfalls. The lay of the land is rolling waterfalls and pools of seafoam green water. It's a miraculous site with frolicking kids from 2-102 years young swimming and meandering around. You could definitely spend all day here - we spent 4 hours there and STILL did not have enough time. There's a vigorous hike to the top and a three mile hike to some caves... Unfortunately we didn't get to these caves - not this time. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ #kuangsifalls #laos #travelphotography #travellerau #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #roamtheplanet #BDTeam #BPMag #TakeMeBackpacking #surroundmewithwater #vacationwolf #viewfromthetop #amazingview #travelwriter #travel #instatravel #travelgram #tourism #instago #passportready #travelblogger #wanderlust (at Kuang Si Waterfalls, Luang Prabang Laos)

Honestly, this might have been the coolest dude I saw in all of my travels... Just going about his day after harvesting some rice. We made the trek from Muang Ngoi to a local village when we passed this him. Dude's got swag. P.S. Love the hat. 😎 😎 😎 #girl #travelstroke #travelling #traveltheworld #igtravel #getaway #travelblog #instago #travelpics #wanderer #wanderlust #travelphoto #travelingram #mytravelgram #visiting #travels #travelphotography  #arountheworld #travellerau #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #dametraveler #roamtheplanet #merylstripdc #travelingwithwinks

He's such a happy and lovable dude! He's got these pet-inducing pheromones especially around the kitties. It always makes me laugh because even though he claims that he isn't a pet person, he always is so calm, gentle, and loving. I'm going to miss this guy for the next 24 hours while he takes a solo trip ton Muang Ngoi Neua. Which is a Lao town along the Nam Ou in Louangphrabang Province about an hour boat ride away from me. The current population is about 700, and of Lao Loum ethnicity.  He's planning to hike out to an even more remote village, check out some caves, and just Adventure it up. I, on the other hand, am planning to stay in the metropolis of Nong Khiaw to do a little writing, cooking classes, and maybe even experience my first herbal steam bath!! Nong Khiaw has a plenty of charm, a decent range of accommodation, plus conveniences such as 24 hour electricity. 🤸 But I was completely exaggerating about it being a metropolis... It is in comparison to Muang Ngoi, but it is still quite a small village. Traveling partners lesson 101: Always make time for yourselves and for you each to have time apart. It's like the tried and true adage, "absence makes the heart grow fonder." But it also helps you to not commit manslaughter. 🚫🔪 👫 🤸 💏 #kitty #cat in #Laos  #travelphotography #travellerau #LP #fodorsonthego #RTWChat #TLPicks #traveldeeper #BPMag #TakeMeBackpacking #surroundmewithwater #vacationwolf #theglobewanderer #passionpassport #dametraveler #roamtheplanet #BDTeam (at Vientiane, Laos)
