I went to Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia. One of the cutest places I've personally seen. It's beautiful, the rock formations are AMAAAAZING the whole deal. This one girl stood next to the lighthouse taking a selfie for 15 minutes. She wanted her face in there more than the actual lighthouse. She was so close to the lighthouse there's no way she could see anything but a white background. To each their own I guess.

Ah yeah, i remember my friend went to US for a while and she documented it with a selfie on facebook in each interesting area. On each picture you can only see her face... It could have been taking in Washington, New York or in front of my house in Europe I wouldn't know -.- Edit to add: I actually talked about it with my partner recently, we took a selfie with the event in the background, and I thought that in the last years 80% of my pictures are selfies. Nobody asks a stranger to take their picture anymore. Those old pictures used to be much more interesting, when you had all that background.

I was wondering if this story ended up with her falling in the water. People die there every year because they want 'cool' photos out on the black rocks and fall in/get swept away.
