Stuff you never see if you don’t walk outside

~ Veselin ~ 6 Comments

It’s been over 3 years since I started doing daily walks. One of the joys of doing them is just spotting ordinary things that just looks nice, and the early spring is probably the most colorful of all seasons for walking.

Here’s for your pleasure, Grape Hyacinth, a mid-80s tabouret, and a scary pirate.

And then two different orange cats. At first, I thought it’s the same cat, because I took these photos maybe 5 meters from one another. After looking at the photos, I noticed one has 2 ears and the other one has 1.75. The two-eared cat is also Pesho, recognized me and meowed.

Ducks, Hanging Hats, and Rust

~ Veselin ~ 14 Comments

My daily walk in Sofia was in rusty areas.

I saw a duck, which is quite uncommon for my neighborhood. We mostly have crows, rooks, magpies, jays and other related crow-ish species. I didn’t even know this mini-river existed, it starts nowhere and ends nowhere. It’s walled by layers of rusty walls. I’m not sure if I can even legally reach it without trespassing some abandoned or poorly maintained industrial lot.

Found some hats along the way.

The orange friend is Pesho, already featured here as Son of a Mother.

The weather was nice and helped me get to 15K steps.
