The UK's network of free hiking 'hotels'
The UK's network of free hiking 'hotels' 29 November 2024 Getty Images You can’t book them and you don't know who else will be there, but they're an excellent way to explore Britain's most remote corners – for free. Hiking up to the top of a valley in Wales' Cambrian Mountains, I was struck by the silence. The noise of the modern world that we've trained ourselves to filter out becomes conspicuous by its absence.

A ilha que foi comprada por seus habitantes e virou exemplo de sustentabilidade
Enquanto a balsa balançava contra o cais de concreto na Ilha de Eigg, houve um atraso no desembarque dos passageiros. Os marinheiros carregavam caixas e pacotes de um barco até a embarcação e verificavam novamente a proa para ter certeza de que não haviam esquecido nada. A última encomenda era um maço de jornais enrolados e etiquetados individualmente. Enquanto os jornais se moviam para frente e para trás, um deles rolava em direção aos degraus que levavam à água.

Eigg, la isla en Escocia comprada por sus habitantes y ejemplo de vida sostenible
Mientras el ferry se balanceaba contra el muelle de concreto en la isla de Eigg, hubo un retraso en el desembarco de los pasajeros. Los marineros cargaron cajas y paquetes desde un bote hasta el ferry y revisaron dos veces la proa para asegurarse de que no olvidaban nada. El último paquete era un fajo de periódicos, enrollados y etiquetados individualmente. Mientras movían los periódicos de un lado a otro, uno rodó hacia los escalones que conducían al agua.
Compraron la isla entre todos los habitantes, y la hicieron sostenible, así es Eigg, en Escocia
En vista de que los terratenientes estaban ausentes o no mostraban interés en el desarrollo de la isla, los residentes de Eigg se convencieron de que la propiedad comunitaria era la única manera de garantizar el futuro del territorio. "Los habitantes de la isla se dieron cuenta de que no íbamos a tener una gran comunidad a menos que la hiciéramos nosotros mismos", dijo Maggie Fyffe, secretaria de la organización propietaria de Eigg.
The mystery of France's 'Stonehenge'
Stretching 4km along the coast of Brittany and consisting of more than 3,000 menhirs (man-made, often tapered, stones erected in prehistoric times across Western Europe – not unlike those Obelix from the Asterix comics made a career sculpting and delivering), the Carnac Alignments represent the largest group of man-made standing stones in the world. Like Stonehenge, their purpose, what they represent and who placed them are mysteries shrouded in theory and legend.
The true origin of French macarons
The true origin of French macarons (Image credit: Maurice Rougemont/Getty Images) The recipe for Macarons des Sœurs is only passed on orally to the succeeding pâtissier, who is the only one who makes the macaron, "alone and away from prying eyes". I In Lorraine, in the north-east of France, the small city of Nancy slumbered on the bank of the river Meurthe. Before the city awakened, a fog crept off the water and settled over the streets.

A cocktail fit to make a Scotsman weep
That’s the only way to describe what was placed in the center of my living room table. Clearly my ineptitude as bartender was worse than I thought, as somehow Mbuso and Sibu, two young waiters from the local area who were as competent and polite as they were light-fingered, had managed to decant almost half a liter of various whiskies into a plastic bottle while the bar was supposed to be under my care. Had I known, I’d have given them the better stuff on the higher shelves.
