Mundari

(images in this post not my own)

I learnt about a tribe called The Mundari when I watched a program called 'Walking the Nile'. It is a documentary that follows an explorer as he treks through Africa and on his travels he comes across the tribe.What is striking about them is how tall and strong they are despite mostly consuming only milk (and the odd fish) according to the presenter. He stated that 'they looked like they live off a diet entirely made of steroids and that they wouldnt look out of place on an NBA Basketball court, rugby team or super heavy weight boxing ring.'

Lord Poulett Arms

Somewhere in a very picturesque, pretty English village called Hinton St George there is a pub called The Lord Poulett Arms, where I have had the second best burger in my life out of all the burgers I have had all over the world..(many different cities in 3 out of the 7 continents) and I have tried plenty. Sorry shake shack, I love you but you got nothing on my top 3 favourite classics
