Sara Rosso says `Foreign. While foreign (rightly so) often brings up images of things outside of your own nation, it can also apply to things outside of or different from your normal environment, or even something which is out of place in general.’
Foreign is fascinating, if it’s different I’ll love it and want to experience it, so this week the challenge is fab as far as I’m concerned. The photo I’ve chosen was taken in . . . any guesses?
To at least one blogging friend this isn’t foreign and I know that a fair few of my visitors live there!

Oh, I like this, Gilly. I’m going to guess Africa or Thailand. Could be way off, but wherever it is, life there would certainly be foreign to me — and probably harder than my life now. Yet I bet many of the people who live there really do love it as much as I love my own homeland.
You’re right on all counts except Thailand!
Wow a place of peace… is it Africa???
You’re the first to guess the continent!
Great photo, Gilly. Is it China?
No closer to me than China!
I cannot guess, Gilly, but it does look peaceful.
It was very hot and calm Tess.
The closest I’ll venture is Asia … OK, perhaps Indonesia? Nice shot Gilly.
No,way off!
Uganda Gilly?
Sorry no!
Malawi perhaps? 😀
Morocco? gorgeous photo…
Very nice, Gilly. Perfect for the challenge indeed.
I can’t even guess where it is. I hope you post the answer. I love it though. It has a peaceful and very small town community appearance. I imagine it was a wonderful place to visit.
Lovely ….
Okay dear one, I know where this i but I’m not telling! We’ll see who guesses it right and later in the week I’ll check back… and you know what? I’ve been there too… Love ya! 🙂
I knew you’d get it! and wasn’t it wonderful sweetheart? There is still someone who should know 🙂
Dear one?? Sweetheart ??? Hmmmmmmm…what am I missing out on here…hehehe
I have no idea where it is but in Africa.
Dear one?? Sweetheart ??? Hmmmmmmm… Jo, you are so funny! 🙂
this must have been an amazing trip. have never been to Africa. yet. 🙂
but which country? no idea…..
thanks for sharing this peaceful moment.
I am also excited with anything foreign. I believe each culture has something beautiful and unique to offer that will enrich our lives. Beauitful picture!
Great example, Gilly!
Stunning photo!
Nice tease, Gilly. Lake Malawi?
Afraid not! I’m going to have to tell soon because the other person I wanted to see is struggling to blog at the mo – Elizabeth already knows!
Piqued the curiosity! Look forward to the answer …
Beautiful shot! My guess would be Gambia, but I’m probably wrong
Nick, I love your site!really wish I could join your challenge but I’m overwhelmed with study. Thanks for visiting me, you ARE wrong I’m afraid but the answer can be found here https://lucidgypsy.wordpress.com/2012/10/30/2812/
Gilly, I have come here not too late I hope;. But of course, this is Ghana, at the Beach, Cape Coast or Accra. Or one of our lagoons. Great shot. 🙂
Celestine I’ve been hoping you would visit! Of course it’s wonderful Ghana! but it’s a small island on lake Volta 🙂
Oh Gilly, I am so deep in so many issues here. And what with the erratic power cuts and poor connectivtiy, I hardly blog these days. But visit I will, when the situation permits. 🙂
Oh my dear I didn’t mean that you should visit, I was just hoping you would see this post in particular!
I really love to find new blogs and yours was a nice one to see to day.
