Train hoppers are turned a blind eye in Mauritania Train hoppers are turned a blind eye in Mauritania as they travel from Choum to Nouadhibou. Riding the world's longest train was quite a challenge as sand and iron dust covered every part of your body. The 3km train transports $1.3B worth of iron ore per year from the Sahara Desert to the coastal town of Nouadhibou in Mauritania. ❤️✈️ #desert #mauritania #exploretheworld #train #youngpioneertours #desert #africa #trainhopping #globetrotter #adventure #travelholic #nomad #traveller #wanderlust #nomadlife #wanderer #travelbug #instatravel #explore #ontheroad #travelmore

You might look like a dork wearing one, but it does the trick. @flightchops has my back as my safety pilot in Plane Jane while I practice some "under the hood" flying for my IFR rating. ❤️✈️ #flying #aviation #piperaircraft #ifr #yyz #pilot #training #underthehood #planejane @icarusdevices

It's been a year since I've owned Plane Jane. I've It's been a year since I've owned Plane Jane. I've commemorated this occasion by heading north to see the fall colours. As there is less sunlight during the day deciduous trees stop producing chlorophyll (the green pigment found in leaves).
