Yesterday, the Challenge4 team embarked on a journey of almost 18,000 kilometers from Norway to South Africa, which they intend to cover in just ten days. The drivers, who will cross three continents and 19 countries, will donate 20 cents for every kilometer traveled to African children, and the Goodyear company will double the amount donated.
Neighboring Croatia is increasingly being written on the map of world tourist attractions. Travelers know it mainly from Dubrovnik and the Dalmatian islands, and due to its proximity and similar history, we Slovenians are "attached" to our southern neighbor much more than the average tourist from a cruise ship who gets to know Croatia in a few days (some only in a few hours). We especially love Istria, the Kvarner Bay and North Dalmatia, so we present you some pearls that are beautiful even on autumn days.
From Berlin to Paris, Tallinn and New York: we invite you to take a virtual trip through the world's most hipster neighborhoods.
New York - the city that never sleeps. The city, which today is the most densely populated city in the USA, with 8.5 million inhabitants. The city was founded by the Dutch in 1624 and was originally called New Amsterdam. The city, which was even the US capital for a while, today does not even have the status of the capital of the state in which it resides. But why worry when it is the capital of the world.
At the mention of caves, the first association for most of us is the Postojna Cave with a human fish, stalactites, stalagmites and a train. Although Slovenia is also famous for the incredible beauty of the cave world, looking at the photos of the most magical caves in the world, you will see that we also have some serious cave rivals around the world.
Are you also one of those who want to travel a little more unusual and unique than what is just forced upon us? We would certainly like some kind of trip outside the established methods. Although some of these methods are still waiting for the "first steps", we must admit that they are all quite unique.
Today they try to put a price on everything. Even coral reefs. The Great Barrier Reef, the father of coral reefs, is worth as much as €4.7 billion to Australian tourism, but invaluable to the health of our oceans. Although it is the largest living creature in the world, a jewel that stretches for 2,300 kilometers and is the most massive representative of its species, climate change and human narrow-mindedness are taking a toll on its health. The organization GetUp! comes to his aid with a video contest.
Three friends, two dogs and one couch - or when couchsurfing takes on a whole new meaning.
We present a list of the strangest hotels in the world, which definitely promise a different holiday experience.
The three Baltic states, which only broke free from the shackles of the Soviet Union a little more than twenty years ago, are facing a similar problem to the countries of the former Yugoslavia. There is always speculation as to where exactly they are located, in the Baltic or the Balkans, what the main cities are, what language they speak and what their currency is. In the desire to make the largest of the three main cities more recognizable, the Latvian capital Riga is especially proud this year to share the title of European Capital of Culture with the Swedish city of Umeå.
The famous "Iron Lady", the Paris Eiffel Tower, is richer for a new attraction - the glass floor on the first floor, which rises 57 meters above the ground. In its iron or manners of steel, are reserved only for those with nerves of steel, because "walking on air" is not for everyone, especially not for those who are afraid of heights. The glass floor was part of a renovation worth 30 million euros, which also includes four solar panels.
