very true! lol except we also had a country house upstate New York growing up, plus I have family in Alsace (France), which certainly helped develop my love and appreciation for nature along with all its beautiful animals!

Little bit like me. I grew up in Vienna but spent most of my summers at my grandparents in the countryside. I would bring home puppies, baby cats and even baby chicks hahah! My mother freaked out and I always had to bring them back again after hiding them in my room. Crazy me! Bali was finally the right place to have as many as I wanted.

think we're running out of space here! but I used to do that too, we had baby chicks, ducklings, sheep, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, even a few tadpoles and pet snakes sometimes (though I'd let them go after a day or two)! lol
