This video made its rounds through internet three months back but we thought we’d post it anyway for those of you who haven’t seen this before.
Commissioned by STA Travel Australia Rick, Tim and Andrew took the trip of a lifetime going through 11 countries in 44 days. Using two cameras and taking 18 flights, the trio created three beautiful and compelling short films based on the movement, learning and food.
Who’s ready to quit their day jobs and go on a trip like this? But no …. Really.
I have two umbrellas: one is small and packed away in my work bag and the other is large for monsoon weather. Aside from the fact that I never remember to bring either, when I do, the little umbrella does little to really shield me from the rain. My head is dry but my pants, my shirt and anything outside the limited range of the umbrella is immediately soaked. When i bring the big guy, I cant really get through the streets correctly and generally, it’s a pain in the ass to store.
Designer Athanasia Leivaditou did some design work and blew my mind with her revamped umbrella jacket. It’s so simple and it’s highly functional! It’s bittersweet that we file this design under “why didn’t we think of it” as it just makes sense and looks good too.
The internet is a big world and something that someone does on one end affect someone across the world. IN this video, a man in london hid nine thousand pounds and set up a tricky Da Vinci Style code to find it. Not a lot of people did but one person did and filmed his adventure. Here is the story and it’s freaking crazy. We can’t even figure out it’s real but damn it if it’s awesome. Check it out, this is an easy Huevalman.
I’m not sure when Food Trucks became insanely popular but I do know that they serve some insanely good food at a bargain prices made by extremely skilled chefs. While this might seem like strictly a New York problem, this could easily be a problem for any city, what’s the problem you ask? In Manhattan, there’s an old law that forbids these food trucks from parking and selling their goods (food). So yeah, that’s the problem but we can be part of the solution.
So watch the video and see what you think.
A little helps a lot and if you’re signature helps keep some people in business and provide people with some food, then sign away.
I’m sure there’s a fairly simple explanation for this but it’s really just awesome. This is a water fountain in the Osaka Station that can tell you the time, draw pictures and spell out words … just for starters.
Who comes up with this stuff?

It’s almost a scientific fact (dont’ quote us on that one) that most men don’t really enjoy the wonder that is furniture shopping.
The minds at Ikea have recognized this fact and have created (for a short time) MÄNLAND. Filled with video games, television sets and hot dogs, it’s an oasis of sanity for any man visiting an Ikea world. Crafty.
Though I can’t say that I’ve been to MÄNLAND, I’d surely be more willing to go to Ikea to eat free hotdogs in front of a tv instead of sitting at home and eating hot dogs I paid for.
Oh … and the swedish meatballs. Who doesn’t love their swedish meatballs.
