About ailsapm

Hi there! I’m Ailsa. I’ve lived in many places, and travelled to many more. I had a lot of fun getting there and being there, wherever there happened to be at the time. I climbed a castle wall in Czesky Krumlov, abseiled down cliffs to go caving in the west of Ireland, slept on the beach in Paros, got chased by a swarm of bees in Vourvourou (ok that wasn’t fun, but it was exciting), learned flower arranging in Tokyo, found myself in the middle of a riot in Seoul, learned to snowboard in Salzburg, got lost in a labyrinth in Budapest and had my ice cream stolen by a gull in Cornwall. And I’m just getting started. If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, I’d love you to follow my travelogue wheresmybackpack.com Remember, anyone who tries to tell you it’s a small world hasn’t tried to see it all.

    Alright Ailsa! THis is GORGEOUS! I love the cactus flower photo. Where was it taken? My parents live in Tucson, AZ and I love visiting in March when all the cactus are in bloom! :)

      Ahh, my photo was taken at the National Botanic Gardens in DC, Nicole, I haven’t yet seen cactus flower in the wild. I bet Arizona is amazing in March! xxx
