An Inspiring Mirrored Treehouse Design You’ll Want To Experience

Just like a LEGO, papercraft or any other kind of build, a treehouse build can be as big or as small as you can imagine.

The temperature in the winter averages around -20 degrees Celsius, and in the summers it's around +20-25 degrees Celsius. That's a span of about 40-45 degrees difference i ...

Unusual Hotels: The Underground Cozy Cave Hotel In Sweden

There are so many unusual and interesting hotels in the world, and I think it would be a lot of fun to take a trip around the world, visit all my social media friends, and stay in these wildly unique hotels.

The Way Portugal Apparently Sees Europe

It's always funny to see how the rest of the world views your home country. Having lived in another country, I think it's even more interesting to check out how different people's views are. They always seem to differ. I have been asked if we have polar bears on the streets here in Sweden, and also ...
Going To Extremes: Would You Swim Here?

Going To Extremes: Would You Swim Here?

Many of you have probably seen people tweet about how cold it is in the Southern part of the United States right now. I realize it's December, so logically, it's supposed to be cold, right? No. It doesn't usually get this cold here. I've lived in Atlanta for over ten years, and I can confirm tha ...

The Green House Effect: Totally Different From What You Think!

I think that everyone has heard about the Green House Effect by now, and it's affecting us all in one way or another.

Will 3D User Interfaces Soon Take Over Our Mobile Devices?

To make it a three part article series (as I have written about three unique developments in the mobile user interface business), I have found something that most people will probably either drool over or just dismiss as too much for a mobile device. The truth is, as the processor gets ever more pow ...

Shoes Made From Furniture Scraps – Recycling Creativity

I haven't written a shoe article in over a week, so it's about time! Liza Fredrika Aslund, a designer from Sweden, created these shoes from pieces of wood leftover from some furniture construction.

A Tribute To The Perfect Twitter Breakfast

A Tribute To The Perfect Twitter Breakfast

I live in the Southern part of the United States, and breakfast here is a big meal of the day. In case you are unfamiliar with this picture to the left, it's a bowl of cheese grits. We love to eat grits in the South, but I don't think I have ever tweeted that before. It's perplexing to me how m ...

3 Fascinating Flash Mobs

I love flash mobs. I don’t know if it’s the creativity and talent or the element of surprise that gets me, but I’m completely fascinated by them. I have noticed a correlation between the popularity of flash mobs and the popularity of social media. I did not know that these two things offici ...
Michael Jackson Tribute Dance – Stockholm, Sweden

Michael Jackson Tribute Dance – Stockholm, Sweden

Sometimes I am so proud to call myself Swedish. Just a few days ago something happened here in Stockholm, Sweden that blew everyone away.
