As we increasingly live/love/marry across nationalities, being very conscious about immigration rules has to become something “normal people” care about and think about. Rather than blaming the victim it’s a hard truth. Now, I wou

Where I am from (Sweden) many, many people make mushroom picking a regular habit. However, most who do are aware of what mushrooms are safe, which ones to take extra care in identifying (definitely all white ones) and which ones to never pi

From building a mostly mud building in a hot humid climate, it seems that the best you can usually do is "not less comfortable than outside". Basically a large reflective (say straw) roof/shade without walls is the ideal dwel

Presently we produce something like 5500 kcal per person on earth. Much of it to feed animals. Producing enough nutrition is not the issue - distribution and patterns of consumption are (and these are more political barriers than physical o

It works well, you initiate a bank account transfer from one country (denominated in say USD) and in a few days your recipient receives it as a deposit in their bank account in their local currency. In between TransferWise keeps you updated
