I’ve only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they’re just kinda there.

Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I’d be taking for granted?

Pic unrelated.

    It’s not very common to see squirrels in Japan but they’re all over the place in the states. I was hiking in the woods with a group and one of the Japanese people spotted a squirrel and told everyone so they could have a look. Where I’m from maybe you’d point out a deer or rabbit or something (although those are pretty common too), but it’s pretty much impossible to not see a squirrel or chipmunk if you go outside.
