"Put it another way, visiting Moldova is like going home to the warm and funny family you forgot you had. Fantastic."
Plus, you get to enjoy this fabulous wine, delicious food, medieval cave monasteries, funky Soviet architecture, and heartfelt hospitality without the crowds.

Long thread here, but please read and retweet.
A week after the #MoroccoEarthquake the rescue and recovery operation is over. The heavy equipment has been pulled out and with it goes all hope of finding the missing alive.

If you aren’t yet using @ecosia as your search engine, today is the day to start as all profits are going to support local partner @AtlasHigh’s earthquake rebuilding activities in Morocco
Also, keep using it after today as searches go to support reforestation projects in world.
🌳🌎 All profits from Ecosia searches today are going to the High Atlas Foundation @AtlasHigh to rebuild farms, irrigation systems, and plant 200,000 fruit and nut trees. 🌎🌳

"Maui is one of the 'scariest opportunities for gentrification' that she’s seen because of 'the very high land values & intense level of trauma & people who are unscrupulous who will come in to try to take advantage of that.'"
So sad, yet predictable. Tourism will do its share.

One expert predicted developers and investors will research who has mortgages and start cold-calling Maui residents. “You won’t be able to go to a grocery store without a flyer attached to your car,” she said. f-st.co/68PBKjs

Berlin’s lioness still on the loose, source still unknown.
Given that she ate a wild pig last night she’s probably just been sleeping that off & digesting all day in the shade.

In today's edition of truth is stranger than fiction. Not only is there a lioness on the loose around Berlin, but the source of said lioness is still unknown...
"having checked with zoos, circuses and animal shelters who all said they were not missing a lioness."

“The pandemic should have taught us a lesson. Instead, the mindset is about recuperating the cash. Everything is about revenue, about the here and now.” said Alessandra Priante, @UNWTO.
So much for #BuildBackBetter and sustainability. Sigh.

Crowds are packing the Colosseum, the Louvre, the Acropolis and other major attractions as tourism exceeds 2019 records in some of Europe’s most popular destinations. The upswing this summer is led largely by Americans, who are lifted by a strong dollar. apnews.com/article/european-…
