How Christmas is celebrated in other parts of the world

Celebrating Christmas is a tradition found on all continents of the world. Nevertheless, not all countries know Santa Claus, nativity scenes and presents under festively decorated Christmas trees. We invite you to take a walk through the most interesting traditions of celebrating Christmas around the world!

Music

Playlist for a festive December atmosphere

With the beginning of December, we open the official season of listening to holiday songs - without shame and guilt. So that songs like Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas and Sinatra's Jingle Bells won't be heard a thousand times on our Christmas playlists, this time we searched for slightly more "alternative" versions of Christmas songs that will accompany us "on repeat" through December.

Smart phones

Mini Power – a cardboard vitamin that charges your phone's battery "on-the-go"

We all know how annoying it is when our phone starts beeping in the middle of the day that it's running out of battery, the charger is alone at home, and we are therefore cut off from the world for the whole afternoon. With the award-winning Mini Power concept, this will never happen again. The cardboard vitamin fills our phone's battery anywhere and anytime.

Society of Biology 2014 winning photos

Again this year, more than 800 amateur photographers took part in the Society of Biology 2014 photography competition, capturing the beauty of almighty nature in their lenses. The impressionistic moments in the winning photos take us both to the wilderness of rainforests and to home gardens behind the house.

Black Friday Destinations

Black Friday and Cyber Monday - increasingly popular American shopping holidays

Yesterday in America they celebrated the famous day of thanksgiving or Thanksgiving, which opened the festive season, which will end with Christmas and New Year. Today, the popular shopping day is Black Friday, and on the Monday after the holiday, i.e. December 1st, Cyber Monday will come - an online shopping holiday whose popularity in America is growing faster and faster.

Culinary

Fruštek - 100% natural and 100% Slovenian granola for a healthy breakfast

Fruštek is the fresh idea of Anja Logar from Maribor, who gave up on the search for sugar-free ones amid the flood of granola and muesli for breakfast on store shelves. 100% natural and 100% Slovenian granolas from organic production and without added sugar turn our morning meal into a healthy habit, which we look forward to even the night before due to the attractive packaging and fantastic taste.

Film & Tv

A list of movies to get you in the holiday mood

The list of movies that will put you in the festive mood is for all of us who are not happy about the fact that Christmas is just around the corner. In order not to turn into the Grinch, with a warm blanket and a cup of hot cocoa for an hour or two on the couch with a good movie, we remember again what it was like when we still believed that Santa Claus existed.

Architecture & Interior

The magic of New Year's lights in our apartments throughout the year

We usually create a festive atmosphere with Christmas lights only in December, when it is almost mandatory to wrap at least the Christmas tree with them, if nothing else. But that Christmas lights can brighten up our homes in an original and not at all kitsch way throughout the year, see for yourself with our selection of magical interiors!

Mobility

Bio Bus - British bus that runs on poo

The Bio Bus is the British version of the green vehicle, which started regular service between Bristol and Bath last week. It is the first environmentally friendly vehicle powered exclusively by human excrement and food scraps.

Culture

Ana Marija Mitić and Katarina Čas in KO KO KOMEDIA

The Špas theater and two language ladies, Ana Marija Mitić and Katarina Čas, will ensure that this year's happy December will be truly happy and that 2014 will pass with laughter, with the comedy KO KO KOMEDIJA, which will take place on stages all over Slovenia. The two friends, smeared with all the "frogs", may look quite different at first glance, but in reality they are much more alike than we think.

Fashion

ABO – "funky" shoes for modern-day Cinderellas

The shoes with the ABO signature of the young Serbian designer Iva Ljubinković are what every fashionista sighs for, in which the soul of a modern-day Cinderella is hidden. Funky and colorful, they are perfect to break up the monotony of our fall wardrobe.
