Added 2021-05-18 14:18:02 +0000 UTCIt's #TravelTuesday with Riley, and this week, we aren't going that far from where I live. We stay in Canada. Or I'm bringing you to Canada, depending where you are ;) I've always been fascinated by abandoned malls, themed parks, and houses. There's just something about being frozen in time. Back in 2018, they were estimating that by the end of 2022, 25% of the malls would be abandoned in the USA! Can you believe this? I can only guess that this number will be WAY up now with the pandemic! Anyways, we aren't stopping at a mall today. We're stopping at an abandoned house. I thought I would share the video of a fellow Canadian who visited it. Look at the video. It's crazy. EVERYTHING was left behind. Family pictures. Old computers. Clothes in the closet. Dishes and cutlery. EVERYTHING! The cars are still out front. What pushes a family to leave EVERYTHING behind? I always wonder what could lead a family to move away from their home without taking anything with them. I realize that sometimes you have to move if you can no longer sustain the house, but you bring your stuff or part of it with you. It's disheartening to see all those things left behind, including family pictures. What's your hypothesis? Comment below! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9q_1SHyhwI
