"Home is not a place, it's a feeling."…As autumn winds and cold grew into this sunny evening on the Mt Judah track near Glenorchy, this tiny, former mining shack with its three beds and table became a much welcome shelter for the night. Candles, a gas stove, wine, chocolate and other details provided some comforts but the key feature was the view – snow covered Mt Earnslaw and scenic Mt Alfred, the braids of the Dart River and the surrounding windswept hills … all visible from its tiny windows. It really doesn't get much better than this….Heather Jock, New Zealand….#guardiantravelsnaps #bbctravel #lonelyplanet #lonelyplanetnewzealand #mtjudah #whakaarinewzealand #whakaari #glenorchy #lakewakatipu #newzealand #ilovenewzealand #purenewzealand #worldtraveller #traveleverywhere #exploretheworld #traveltheworld #opentheworld #instatravel #fromwhereyoudratherbe #wonderful_places #beyourbucketlist #betheadventure #lonelyplanettraveller #natgeotravel #igtravel – from Instagram
The Jean mining hut on the Mt Judah trek from Glenorchy, an area of alpine, tussock and grassland terrain with soaring mountains above and views of the Dart Valley below. These huts were built by scheelite miners and their mining activities date back to the 1880s with the last peetering out after the Korean War….#guardiantravelsnaps #bbctravel #lonelyplanet #lonelyplanetnewzealand #wanderlust #explore #travelphotography #visitedplanet #ilovenewzealand #worldtraveller #traveleverywhere #exploretheworld #traveltheworld #opentheworld #instatravel #fromwhereyoudratherbe #wonderful_places #beyourbucketlist #betheadventure #lonelyplanettraveller #natgeotravel #igtravel #lakewakatipunz #glenorchy #purenewzealand #newzealand #jeanhut #mtjudahloop #mtjudah #mtjudahtrack – from Instagram

- "Education is the passport for the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today." ~ Malcolm X…These kids are from a school in Sisikudi in Orissa, India. Literacy rates here have improved in recent years and according to the 2011 National Census it's 73.5%, marginally behind the national average of 74%. The difference comes in gender with male literacy at 75.9% and female at 50.97%. The tribal pockets, like Sisikudi, are where the government is focused on improving education….#visitedplanet #orissa #odisha #india #indiaeducation #iloveindia #school #indianschools #wonderful_places #bbctravels #guardiantravelsnaps #travelphotography #lonelyplanet #lonelyplanetindia #lonelyplanettraveller #bbctravel #beyourbucketlist #betheadventure #traveltheworld #natgeotravel #instatravel #fromwhereyoudratherbe #exploretheworld #wanderlust #worldtraveller #travelpic #igtravel #opentheworld #natgeo #travelanywhere – from Instagram
