I've only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they're just kinda there.
Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I'd be taking for granted?
Pic unrelated.
I find the old and historical buildings in the center of other countries' cities very fascinating. I live in a city where all the old buildings were demolished to build newer style ones, so I don't see a lot of them in my everyday life.
You go to some tiny, dying town and it has 700 years of history, often 1000+ years of proof of habitation before that and a majestic church that is a work of art on its own.
I have lived in Tucson, Arizona for about 5 years. I still get excited about all the little lizards and birds. And Coyotes, and bobcats. Last night I saw a toad for the first time. There is a TON of wildlife here, kind of like you hear about Australia, and it's pretty amazing. I'm sure it's all pretty old hat to a lot of people. I also see gorgeous mountain ranges every day, which is not something I grew up with in New York.
Oh, and there is legal weed (marijuana) every damn where. It's fucking. Awesome. We....did not have this in NY growing up.

The Derby. So glad I moved out of Louisville, KY as soon as I graduated high school.
