I saw Cranity’s amazing post about modern au Qui-Gon fashion. But like... what if these clothes existed in the Star Wars universe and Qui-Gon starts going on missions in these kinds of outfits.
Pammukale, Turkey
(fr) Pamukkale est une tufière entièrement élaborée par les eaux chaudes qui s'écoulent des entrailles de la montagne. Le site comporte 17 sources. Située au sud-ouest de la Turquie, certaines d'entre elles ont une température de plus de 45 °C, et sont saturées de sels minéraux et de gaz carbonique. Ce dioxyde de carbone, en se libérant dans l'air, fait précipiter le carbonate de calcium contenu dans l'eau, lequel se dépose, sous forme pâteuse, sur les flancs de la colline et durcit ensuite lors de l'évaporation de l'eau. Chaque litre d'eau délivre un demi-gramme de carbonate et de calcium.
(en) Pamukkale is a tufa formed entirely by the hot waters which flow from the bowels of the mountain. The site has 17 sources. Located in the southwest of Turkey, some of them have a temperature of more than 45°C, and are saturated with mineral salts and carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide, by being released into the air, precipitates the calcium carbonate contained in the water, which is deposited, in pasty form, on the sides of the hill and then hardens during the evaporation of the water. Each liter of water delivers half a gram of carbonate and calcium.

Travel Safety: Preparing for Unexpected Situations and Staying Secure Abroad
Traveling to different countries can be an amazing adventure, allowing us to immerse ourselves in new cultures and landscapes. However, it's super important to focus on safety and being ready for anything when we're exploring places that are unfamiliar to us. Unexpected things can happen during our international travels, from small inconveniences to more serious emergencies. So, it's essential to get ourselves equipped with the right knowledge and precautions to handle these situations well.
1. Research and Planning:
Conduct thorough research on your travel destination. Familiarize yourself with the local customs, laws, and potential risks. Make note of emergency contact numbers and the location of your country's embassy or consulate. Plan your itinerary, accommodations, and transportation in advance to minimize uncertainties.
2. Travel Insurance:
Invest in comprehensive travel insurance that covers medical emergencies, trip cancellations, lost belongings, and other unexpected events. Verify the coverage details and ensure it aligns with your travel needs.
3. Secure Documentation:
Safeguard essential documents such as your passport, visa, tickets, and travel insurance policy. Consider making digital copies and storing them securely online or in a separate location from the originals.
4. Health Precautions:
Prioritize your health by visiting a healthcare professional for necessary vaccinations and medications related to your destination. Carry a basic first aid kit with essential supplies and any prescribed medicines.
5. Money Matters:
Diversify your financial resources by carrying a mix of cash, credit/debit cards, and traveler's checks. Notify your bank of your travel plans to avoid any unexpected issues with accessing your funds.
6. Stay Informed:
Stay updated on current events and travel advisories pertaining to your destination. Subscribe to alerts from reliable sources to receive real-time information about potential safety concerns.
7. Stay Connected:
Maintain regular communication with trusted individuals back home. Share your itinerary, contact information, and any changes in your plans. Stay in touch periodically to provide updates on your whereabouts and well-being.
8. Cultural Sensitivity:
Respect local customs, traditions, and cultural norms. Dress appropriately and avoid behaviors that may offend or violate local sensitivities.
9. Personal Security:
Be vigilant in crowded or unfamiliar areas. Keep your belongings close and avoid displaying signs of affluence that may attract unwanted attention. Use reputable transportation and exercise caution when exploring isolated or poorly lit areas.
10. Emergency Preparedness:
Familiarize yourself with the emergency exits and evacuation routes of your accommodations. Know the local emergency numbers and basic phrases in the local language to seek help if needed.
International travel can be a rewarding experience when approached with caution and preparedness. By conducting thorough research, investing in appropriate insurance, securing essential documents, and staying informed about your surroundings, you can mitigate potential risks and ensure a safe and enjoyable journey. Remember, prioritizing your safety and being prepared for the unexpected are key aspects of responsible travel.

Skadar lake, one of the largest lake in Europe which crosses both Montenegro and Albania. Skadar lake also is largest bird reserve in Europe, so unique and beautiful! Definitely must have to visit!🌍⛰
Another pic I took of myself at Montenegros Black lake.🌍 There are a lot of spots and you want to take a shot there amost every minute. 😄
Recently I have visited Montenegro, country with beautiful landscapes, mountains and canyons. ⛰ This photo was taken at Black lake, north side of the country. Too sad i didn't have enough time to explore the entire area as I didn't expect it would be so large! Still, I have enjoyed a lot being there!🤙🌍
Just chilling at the edge of the cliffs!🤙 Who don't want to take a break and enjoy the view after long hike!🌍📷
When I was there I thought wind will blow me away! 😆 So strong! You should expect really strong and cold winds in Faroe Islands, but it is not disturbing!🤙🌍
One of the most beautiful places in Faroe Islands - Trælanípan, at Sørvágsvatn Lake.🌍 Pretty unique, as you see entire lake is above Ocean. Looks so insane! 📷🤙
My first day adventure in Faroe Islands started with boat trip to Mykines island, known as Puffin land with insane landscapes! Unfortunately i didn't spot any Puffin there, as I chose wrong tyme period. 😄 Still hike was so enjoyable there! 🤙📷
