Photo Riddle # 10: Another where in the world was I?

1. Couple in love (and a horse's head)

Back in March I ran one of my little “Riddles” asking you to guess where in the world I was… Well, here we go again. This time there are no pics of me, but only photos of places I’ve travelled to or lived in…

These include:

Belgium, where I lived as a teenager for a year while on a student exchange with AFS;

France, where I have travelled extensively, and where I also lived on several occasions;

Mongolia, where I spent three months in 1999 helping out in a church and taking kids  into the outdoors abseiling (rappelling) and doing team building;

Mozambique, Malawi, Zimbabwe and Zanzibar – just four of the many African countries I’ve been in;

Australia; and

Madagascar – where I visited often and then lived for two years.

Can you guess where these photos fit? Submit your answers in the comments section below… (You may have to look at them more closely – just click on each for bigger versions).

Have fun, and I’ll reveal the answers over the weekend.

 

2. Two men sewing

3. Street scene

4. Team work

5. Church

6. Blindfolded street painter

7. Two windows and a green wall

8. Woman in a window

9. It's obvious isn't it?

10. Soviet-style apartments

11. Two friends asleep

12. Mobile meat
