Travel Documents

Many of us look forward to going on vacation during the summer seasons, and we may choose to do so with family, friends and sometimes even by ourselves.  Whether we choose to go close to our home or far away from it, it is usually filled with wonderful memories that tend to stay with us for a very long time.

However, sometimes we may miss out on taking this trip because we would have realized a little too late that our travel documents were not in order.
Therefore, if this is one of our plans for the summer, now would be a good time to check and ensure that our travel documents are in order.
We could make sure that our passport is valid for at least six months from our departure date, and if we need a visa to enter a particular country, we have it or would be getting it in time. 
Additionally, if we are a permanent resident of a country and not a citizen, we should ensure that the relevant “papers” to re-enter the country are in order.  Yes, and other things along this line.

Ethiopia – It’s 2012 in 2019

The Ethiopian Calendar is different from the Gregorian Calendar and the latter is what most of the world goes by.   The Ethiopian Calendar has thirteen months in a year, while the Gregorian one has twelve months.   Currently, the year in Ethiopia is 2012.   The following links may be helpful in shedding more light on this.

Brazil – Home of the most “Uncontacted People”

I really don’t know the reason why. However, whenever I hear about an uncontacted group of people living in the forested area, my mind is always blown.  There are so many questions that run through my mind about them. Nevertheless, this is not about me. It is about Brazil, and in this country’s forested areas, there are about 100 tribes or groups of people living there.  Brazilian National Indian Foundation is responsible for their care from the outside world.    Note https://www.survivalinternational.org/tribes/uncontacted-brazil https://riotimesonline.com/brazil-news/rio-politics/brazils-funai-calls-army-to-help-protect-isolated-indigenous-tribes/
