Hi there Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 🇦🇺 DFAT WA State Office Just want to compliment and thank you for super quick passport re-issue, it barely took a week. That is exceptional service excellence👏👏👏

Hey Woolworths Your salmon price is $42 per kg, Coles have the same for $29. How do you justify this exhorbitant difference. We buy 3 pieces at least twice a week, won't be giving you the business at this rate

Hey Woolworths Compliments for Arron at your Highgate WA store. He's acting manager in F & V for this month and is doing a top job. Pls pass on to Karen, the store manager. Thanks🤗

Anyway, here's a pic from today that could easily pass for a summer scene but is actually from a cold but clear Perth winter's day 💙

It feels like every travel post/article at the moment is revolving around summer. People do realise there is a Southern Hemisphere where it is currently winter, right?!

Yes, or at least shoulder season. Peak season anywhere is almost always awful.

English ‘paradise’ comes from the Persian ‘pardīs’ meaning ‘walled garden.’

The Shāzda garden of Mahān, Iran looks like paradise compared to the surrounding desert.

Fascinating. I witnessed Tiananmen Square censorship for myself when in Beijing during the 25th anniversary of the massacre. Any vague chance of a mention in Western media, the TV went black. Security was also super tight around the square that day. Very dystopian.

When my 13 year old child wrote to Anthony Albanese asking him why he was letting a level 3 biohazard run rampant through the community- jeopardising vulnerable people including her family members - he wrote back this shit.
I’m made physically ill by this level of gaslighting of our kids

This is an issue that is not talked about enough. So much disrespect shown by many climbers who go to Mt Everest. A beautiful landscape being polluted by selfish people.

I absolutely love mosque architecture. Some mosques are more famous than others, but here are some that are quite underrated! #travel

How do we go back to being a society that builds its train stations like spectacular Art Deco cathedrals?
