Meat City: Copenhagen’s Up And Coming Art Scene

Kodbyen

Yes, Meat City. Additional specifically, a still working meatpacking district of Copenhagen. Ultimately, artists, club goers, and butchers are collectively at final.

The city owned, Kodbyen District (practically Meat City — I didn’t come up with that), is undergoing an progressive modify, to say the least, in which all of the abandoned butcheries are now remaining leased to designers, artists, cafes, and clubs in hopes of building a new “hotbed of creativity.” It’s catching on, says the NY Times, as a location for the zany and strange. I would guess passing butchers and forklifts on your way dwelling from the club would be a bit “zany.” Nevertheless, I applaud the idea and urban revitalization efforts.

Maybe the thought of Meat City is creative adequate to entice more of the exact same. Chalk up yet another reason to pay a visit to this satisfied tiny country!

30 Things No One Tells You About Backpacking in South America

Image
During our year-long honeymoon, we spent 5 incredible months backpacking in South America. We swam in the Caribbean at Tayrona National Park in Colombia; we swam with playful baby seals in the Galapagos Islands; we hiked ( ok, crawled on our hands and knees ) on The Quilotoa Loop in the Andes in Ecuador; we crossed the La Balsa border into Peru in a chicken truck, we attempted ( and failed ) to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru; we made friends with alpacas at a winery in Valparaiso, Chile; we drank our collective weight in wine in Mendoza, Argentina. Although each of the countries we visited – Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, and Argentina – was as unique and different from one another as can be, we did notice a few universal truths about backpacking in South America… things nobody told us about before we left. In no particular order and in various degrees of usefulness, we’ve compiled our observations into this list of 30 things no o...

The 6 Best Viewpoints in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland (and How to Find Them!)

Image
Having just returned from a short stay in the stunning Swiss town of Lauterbrunnen, I’m a bit of a drooly, overwhelmed mess. After all, with a head full of dreams carefully planted from years of pining over Lauterbrunnen on Instagram and Pinterest, my expectations were so high I could practically vomit from excitement. The issue? Many of the photos circulating online are actually snapped from drones, which means they’re not real views you can access without spontaneously sprouting wings. So, if you’re like me and have failed at sprouting said wings, I’ve done some groundwork for you! Here are some of my favourite viewpoints and Lauterbrunnen photo spots that I discovered, along with instructions on how to reach them. Best of all? Most of them are very easy to reach, with minimal hiking required (unless you’re craving the workout, in which case I have some options for you). I apologize that these viewpoints don’t have officia...

Looking for things to do in Lagos ? Below you will find the 15 best tourist attractions, a suggested itinerary and many tips 😉 Lagos, an ancient marine town, is one of the most visited cities in the Algarve due to its renowned beaches, incredible rock formations, great variety of hotels, bars, restaurants and spirited summer nightlife. The city has also a very rich history that stretches back more than 2000 years. It was occupied by the Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths, Byzantines and Moors, who in the 8 th century fortified and walled the city and built a medieval castle that can still be seen today. After the Christian Reconquista of the Iberian Peninsula in 1189, Lagos played an important role in Portuguese discoveries due to its strategic harbor position. Under the expansionist project of King Sebastian, Lagos became a city, and the capital of the Kingdom of the Algarve, in 1573. Nowadays there are no queens or kings in town, but instead thousands of tourists who c...
