We blame ourselves for losing touch with nature. That we cut down the forests, neglect the rivers, do not cultivate the land and pollute the air. They say that nature will take its revenge on us. Let's (p)remain optimistic! There are more and more initiatives for living with nature. We seem to be re-learning what a relationship can bring us and how important it is for the generations after us.

But there are not a few stories describing bad experiences on the plane; not enough space, bad food, annoying neighbor, unfriendly staff and more could be found. But you can take care of some (dis)likes yourself. A small pillow under the head, a pair of headphones or an interesting book can contribute to comfort on the plane. It is also wise to take care of your stomach or digestion before boarding. What foods should you avoid before getting on a plane?
We love recycled. Just because of the good feeling, because we contribute to a cleaner environment. After all, such things also look great, especially furniture. What about plastic, do we like it?

Due to increasing urbanization, large living spaces have probably run off their bells. We will have to figure out how to make the best possible use of smaller areas without feeling cramped at the same time.
