Elephant Riding in Zimbabwe - Outdoor Wednesday

Susan at A Southern Daydreamer is the gracious hostess for Outdoor Wednesday. Participants post pictures of anything that they might find outdoors. Come join in!

My post for today is an outdoor Elephant Riding in Zimbabwe. As you can tell from the pictures, Elephant Riding is very scary since you are very high (you could touch the trees crowns!) One woman payed for the trip but couldn't do it, and regreted it when all of us came back safely.

After the trip we had the chance to feed the elephant that carried us and caress it.

Have a great Outdoors Wednesday, girls!

Arica and Parinacota Outdoors

This event is kindly hosted by Susan at http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com/

Well, since I live in an apartment, my outdoors for this week take place at a wonderful travel I made to North of Chile last December. Please notice the beautiful desert landscapes and the crystal clear sky. Have a great Wednesday!

Lluta Valley

(It is in the middle of the dryest desert in the world Amazing!)

Lauca National Park

(you can see 2 famous volcanos in the back called "Los Payachatas": Parinacota and Pompaire)

A very friendly llama.

(She loved eating cookies from tourists hands and truly behaved like a dog, he, he)

In loving memory of the first half of my life

Next October 11th I'll be 35 years old. Everyday from that one on I'll be nearer to my 40s. My life is just beginning!

Did you know scientists think that the first person to reach 150 years old is already born? Yes, our expected life length is growing exponencially.

That makes me think about being a poor elder woman (financially speaking), therefore saving for retirement is my first priority in life since I was 28. But it is never too late to start.

Do you think I am worrying too much? Well I am not a risk friendly person. I want to be able to travel the all over the world and a healthy heart (artificial or not, I don't care) to enjoy my golden years.

Since I like knitting, sewing, cross stitching and crafting a lot (but I don't have much time) I think I won't need a stuck of money to keep me happy and occupied.

I'm looking forward to meeting my destiny. Do you?
