Have you watched My Octopus Teacher? Meet my Favorite Octopi!
My Octopus Teacher has been a huge hit on Netflix. I watched it and cried like a baby even though I know very well that octopuses have short life spans, depending on the species. I found it to be a beautiful documentary, and it hit very close to home as one of my favorite places to be is underwater with marine life. I agree that wild animals teach us a lot about being human. The octopus in My Octopus Teacher is a Common Octopus, but there are many species. Allow me to introduce you to some of the octopus I have been privileged to see while diving!
FUN OCTOPUS FACT: Octopuses use tools! They are quite intelligent, solving puzzles, opening jars, and even opening childproof medicine bottles!

The Five Most Luxurious Chalets in the World!
The five most luxurious chalets in the world are gorgeous! When we hear the word chalet we imagine a wooden house immersed in the deep white snow of a mountain peak in the Alps. At least that is what I imagine! A lovely chalet, offering the feeling of warmth and coziness to its guests. Since the creation of the first chalets in the Swiss Alps, on the border of France and Switzerland, things have changed a lot. These wooden houses, which initially served the needs of shepherds as a summer residence, have now become perhaps the most luxurious type of accommodation in a winter resort area. I don’t know about you, but I am ready to go…I’m happy to visit all five most luxurious chalets!

Jobs that you can do while Traveling the World
Jobs that you can do while traveling the world! Work, in the past, has always been limiting. Traditionally you would be in the company office or in your general workplace, whether you offer products or services. When our mind goes to ‘vacation”, we imagine relaxing and peaceful times where the thought of work doesn’t bother us much. If COVID19 has shown us anything, it’s that there are new ways to work. How would you feel if someone told you that you no longer need to be limited by the small space of your office or strict rules of conduct during your presence at work? Welcome to remote jobs.
