The place is the most beautiful spot in my small town, the most predominant colour is green, we have big long large oaks scattered all over the Park and we've got an amazing lake right in the center of the Park wich has colourful fishes and a sublime fountain that scuirts shining clean water. This is my sactuary, here I leave all the stressful things of the day, it's where I found myself my own me.

For those who have commented on my photo of "Bath time but for who ?".   Thank you taking the time to view my photo.
The elephants at this reserve were very well looked after, no poking with the hook and the mahout was soft spoken and kind.

I have visited other reserves and rehabilitation

Hi there,

I do not know much about computers. Before completing this blog, my finger mistakenly hit a button and what I had written was gone. but I will try to remember what I wrote.

That is the problem facing most of us nowadays. Basically, the present is built upon the past to form a future. In other words, we are bec

An orange (Viviana's Orange in the Brain - short poem)and an ice cream (Adlet's Ice Cream Tragedy) can be turned into poems. I like writing my travelling experiences. It was easier, putting my expe

“Mickey, come out and join us!” Sitting beside the window of the library, I was reading a novel, when suddenly a call came, on the other side of the phone, some lovely girls said this to me excitingly.

“Um…but I haven’t finished my novel…” Actually I was swayed, to go or not to go? After a short struggle in my brain, I decided to join the lovely girls in the lovely playground. Quick as thought, I almost popped myself out of the library in a minute. Upon arriving there, I saw the girls flying a pr

I’m blessed to be born in a beautiful country, Indonesia. Indonesia is an archipelago compromising thousands of islands, blessed with fertile lands with so many vegetative. Many cultures, many languages, traditions, and of course wit

Sitting in the balcony, bathing the bright shine and looking at the mountain far away, a light smile suddenly appeared on Milan’s lips. She thought of the other day and the surprise, happiness arose from the bottom of her heart...

Milan lives with dad and grandma since she was 7 years old after dad and mum divorced. In her memory, she just knows mum is a pretty woman. Grandma doesn’t tell her much about her beautiful mum, and she dares not to ask her dad either, so “that woman” in their mouths is
