Ah, yes, the groundbreaking revelation that Paris had a moving sidewalk in 1900 🙄. Next, we'll uncover that people once used horse-drawn carriages too! 🚶‍♂️➡️🐎 Apparently, Thomas Edison filmed this earth-shattering moment, but don't worry, you can watch it online instead of traveling back in time⏳.

Paris Had a Moving Sidewalk in 1900, and a Thomas Edison Film Captured It in Action

It's fair to say that few of us now marvel at moving walkways, those standard infrastructural elements of such utilitarian spaces as airport terminals, subway stations, and big-box stores. But there was a time when they astounded even residents of one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world.

From an unforgettable Italian cruise I took with a friend, here’s a closer view of the Basilica of Santa Francesca Romana. Surrounded by lush greenery, the church’s statues and brick bell tower rise against the Roman sky—a quiet yet powerful testament to the city's sacred and architectural legacy.

Uluru, 2003 – A moment frozen in time. ⏳🔥

Back then, it was still possible to climb this sacred monolith, and I did. Today, I wouldn’t, and now it’s rightfully prohibited out of respect for the Anangu people. Looking back, Australia was an unforgettable outdoor adventure—vast landscapes, raw nature, and an endless sense of freedom.

Who else has experienced the magic of the Outback? 🇦🇺🌏

A sepia-toned photograph of the iconic St. Paul's Cathedral in London, taken from the front entrance. The intricate details of the Baroque-style architecture are highlighted, with grand columns, statues, and the majestic dome standing out against a dark sky. Leafless trees frame the scene, adding depth and contrast to the image.

Kerala, my hometown, is more than a place; it’s home. Filled with childhood memories, it embodies simplicity and belonging. Life pulls us away, but the call of home remains strong.
