The Atacama desert in Chile is the driest non-polar desert on Earth, but even this seemingly barren wasteland can burst with life under the right conditions. If the desert experiences heavy rainfall during the Southern Hemisphere’s spring (October, November), the flowers ‘hibernating’ beneath its surface suddenly bloom with an explosion of color, eager to take advantage of the rain. Th
I absolutely love string lights. They’re a simple, romantic way to change up the ambiance in just about any space. Several years back, a Finnish artist named Johanna Hyrkäs took the idea of string lights, combined it with a carpet, and created the Light Carpet by crocheting around the outside of a light-up rope. This DIY project adds a warm touch of light to your home 365 days a year. You can
12 countries – 15 flights – 28,211 total miles traveled – 5 hotel night stays – 1 confiscated tripod – 7 wonders – 13 days.

1 At a time when housing rates are hitting the roof, an English farmer has gone and built a house for almost nothing. 59-year-old Michael Buck spent a measly £150( $250) to construct a small, yet cozy house in the garden of his Oxfordshire home. The former art teacher drew plans for the house on the back of an envelope. He didn’t need any special planning permissions since it was classi
A year after it was taken by ISIS, the Syrian city of Palmyra was recently retaken Syrian forces backed by Russian airstrikes. Previously home to many of the world’s most treasured historical sites, many artifacts were destroyed by the Islamist forces in an anti iconoclastic purge. Now, Joseph Eid, a photographer for AFP news agency who took photos of the site just two years ago, has posted befo
#1 For years, an old yellow camper sat in a field, totally ignored, unnoticed by most passersby. After all, there was probably nothing inside but some dust and maybe some old broken furniture. At least, that was the assumption. Finally, someone’s curiosity got the best of them and the camper was opened. And what was inside was beyond anyone’s expectations. It was, in a sense, perfec
#1 I don’t know about you, but I’m crazy about two things: the color pink and antiques. So when I saw this stunning, all-original, 1950s kitschy kitchen, I immediately fell in love! According to the homeowner, the house was built in 1956 — but was never lived in until he came along in 2010! When he moved in, the twinkly appliances — state of the art during their time — had nev
