Annastunnel Antwerp Belgium

This is one of the most amazing places I have been to in my #travellife is this amazing 5km underground tunnel. #annastunnel #antwerp in Belgium. I call it my accidental discovery, I walked into this place while searching for shelter from the viciously cold wind and then I happened on a remarkable landmark in the history of #Belgium , a trully amazing and beautiful tunnel built in the 1930s this tunnel is a wonderful mix of creativity and awesomeness. The two stage wooden escalators were the first in history made from beautifully crafted wood finely finished and polished. You can either walk through or ride through on a bicycle. It's a must see if you ever find yourself in Antwerp Belgium.
Discovering this place reminds me that there is always good even in seemingly bad circumstances. 


Yes come to Europe and discover amazing awesome place.

Mass tourism in Nigeria

Introduction Tourism has been defined variously by various scholars over the years to include the business of travel for leisure, recreation and or research; however for the purpose of this paper the definition put forward by Aremu 2001 will be used. According to him; “tourism can be defined as the science, art, and business of attracting and transporting visitors, accommodating them and catering for their needs and wants. The entire world industry of travel, hotels, transportation, and all other components including promotion, serves the needs and wants of travelers. Tourism today has been given new meaning, and it is primarily a term in economics referring to an industry” (McIntosh et al, 1977, Aremu D.A 2001). From the above given definition mass tourism would therefore involve, the large scaled efforts of governments and peoples of a country towards establishing, providing and maintaining tourism and tourism enhancement services. Nigeria has enormous and widely spread qu...

An Ode to the Bereaved Land

Image
To the nights when we toil on wintry streets  And the Days when we sweat in the fiercely sun Without end we have shed: Our tears! Our blood! Our sweat! We worked through the night (sigh) Our backs curled up like smoked king mackerel  Our mouths hooked with pins between out kneels like over dried cat fishes on mama's smoking racks We toil endlessly on self inflicted exiles working long hours in foreign fields Forced out of our father's land not by slavers but by the painful greed of our own kinsmen (sigh) We cry tears we cannot control not because of the weight of the burdens we bear but alas! out of pity for kits and kins left behind  We mourn silently with swears under our breath wailing, moping, wishing and groping  We pray, casting aspersions, we wait, eyes wide open ears to the ground We stand at the post of doors peeking with elongated necks like spear beaked fishes We peek back at the lands we know full of potentials  Waiting, hoping, alas longing! Believi...

Wemimo

In the beginning Wemimo The long road that led to the stream was very silent and a strange unusual feeling hung in the air, as she walked alone towards the stream she could hear the noise of the leaves under her feet. The once green leaves now brown were scattered on the flow dancing to the tune of the occasional wind.   As she walked on a little superstitious fear crept up in her mind, she had walked on for a few minutes in silence and no sound of any near human could be heard. A whirl wind had blown up few strands of withered leaves into a circular cone and as she walked on she could not but think what it meant; it was often shared in female gossip that such winds were thieves sent to sweep off the good of any house hold it welled up in front of, and often men of Owode village came out with incantations any time such winds welled up in front of, or within their premises. She had also observed that for days her fathered had pampered her, He who the entire household fea...
