With fancy and expensive design hotels popping up all across the world, it’s nice to hear that every now and then, there is a hotel that has the unique appearance of a design hotel but really is sustainable and based on a simple idea. This is what happened in Mexico, when the architects behind T3arc got together and came up with the idea of using old concrete tubes in order …

Following a generous invite by Contiki to come to Munich and celebrate the last days of this year’s Oktoberfest, I decided to ditch work for a weekend and head down there for some really serious hedonism. I had never been to Oktoberfest before, so it was time to pop my cherry and find out what it’s all about. I had a feeling it would be pretty fun, but in all …
Yoga is an interesting sport. Ever since I became a faithful fan of Sex and the City some many years ago, I’ve been convinced that there is something about yoga that is quite special, giving people – and especially women – who practise it, a certain power. Girls who’ve subscribed to it often talk about how it made them stronger, fitter and more relaxed to face their every day life.
I …
Your days of camping inside boring triangle or igloo-shaped tents are counted – there is a new star shining brightly from camp heaven! British Festival gear provider Firebox.com has come up with an incredibly cool tent shaped just like a full-size replica of the VW T1 – a camping legend in its own right.

With Octoberfest in full swing, I figure this is the right time to tell you guys about our recent trip to Munich. We were here for just a stopover after our trip to Innsbruck, with just one day to spend before our plane would take us back home to Berlin. Shortage of time is no reason for us to not give it our best shot at exploring the city, so …
It’s always amazing when someone comes up with the effort and energy to create a time and place where like-minded people can get together, exchange, support each other and, in the best case scenario, enjoy a few cocktails while doing all of the above.
This past weekend, that someone were the lovely people behind Etsy.com, the website that connects small creative business owners with potential buyers. At the Hello Etsy summit …
We love camping. You seem to love it too, as long as it’s a new and exiting form of camping, telling from the great response we got from posts about tree camping or the camper bike. Just as unusual as those two is this new camping experience created by German industrial designer Daniel Straub: a swimming caravan.
Camperwagons which only roll around and stand there, are so yesterday – the future …
What comes to your mind when you think of Croatia?
For the longest time, to me it had been one of those destinations that people talked about as being really pretty and certainly worth a trip. However, no one ever really described what it was actually like and unlike European holiday favorites such as Greece, Italy or Spain, Croatia simply is not quite as talked about in the media, which is …
And didn’t I know it – a UK study has found out, after asking 1000 women via an online poll, that about 85% of women spend more on the pre-departure shopping than they do on the actual holiday. This may not come as a huge eye-opener to most, but it’s still a pretty fun fact to be faced with.
UK women spend an average of $1000 on their trip, but a …
