Mountains in the Philippines
Who says agriculture doesn’t belong in mountain regions! I have to hand it to these workers, they’ve certainly made lemonade with the lemons nature gave them.

Bottle-cap painting
Here’s another way to recycle apparently useless junk. I must admit that, even though I’m very interested in recycling and the whole environmental issue, using bottle caps to create beautiful art, never crossed my mind.

Life-size Alien statue
If you’re a true fan of the Alien series, you’ll probably want one of these. I am a fan of science-fiction movies but I can’t say I’m a die-hard fan of Alien. To tell you the truth, those aliens scare the hell out of me, always have and I’m pretty sure they always will. I […]

New species of fish?
Now there’s another fish I didn’t know existed. Apparently nobody did… I admit I’m not a fish connoisseur, there are many species of fish I didn’t know existed and I have just added a new one to the list. This one is a beauty though, if you know what it is, please a comment, I’d […]
Incredible sand sculptures
After seeing what artists can do with snow and ice, it’s time to see how they handle sand. I remember when I was just a little kid and traveled with my folks to the seaside, I used to make sand sculptures too…but nothing like the ones presented at the Harrison Hot Springs. Also known as […]
India’s Street dentists
Can’t afford to go to the dentist? Go for a walk and you may get your teeth fixed too! I for one wouldn’t go to a guy that gets me in a headlock, while he pulls my teeth out with rusty pliers, on the corner of a dusty street, no matter how cheap it is, […]
