Beautiful images (and some nice info) of beautiful places all over the world. It makes me wanna travel all the time to visit all the places presented by this extension. 🤩
I have thoroughly enjoyed discovering new and amazing things with every new tab. This has been particularly great during the pandemic when "travel" has been reduced to trips to the grocery store.
In the world of this pandemic, this extension is breath of fresh air, many thanks!
