馃 Between Fynbos and Mountains - Drinking Wine and Exploring Nature at Waterkloof, Somerset West, South Africa by fermentedphil@fermentedphil

Farming is inherently destructive. You need to remove original, and what one might call native, vegetation and animal life in order to plant one's own crops and animals. The option to not do this is not entertained by many; life today is inherently about capitalistic gains. Vacant property, even if crucially important to the wellbeing and future of a species, is seen as "unproductive land" which can be and should be "cultivated". Despite this rather bleak reality, by now an inescapable one, there are still places that want to "restore" nature to some degree. What has been called "regenerative farming" acknowledges this inherent destructive element of farming but it also positively tries to amend and correct as much as possible the harm being done in the process.

馃 Sunday in Andermatt by plantfuljourney@plantfuljourney

It's a popular vacation place which is surrounded by slopes, so you can enjoy skiing in winter, and tons of hiking trails in summer. We knew all of that, but what we didn't know is that Andermatt is so different to any other vacation places that we visited. It is a lively place with many restaurants and bars that are open even on Sunday.

馃 Mariana: charming architecture in the middle of Brazil by duvinca@duvinca

We are once again touring Brazil and those other inland areas that surprise us and that many like. In the same region of Minas Gerais, where we discovered an old gold mine, we visited the nice town of Mariana. The streets are already familiar to us, the same lovely facades with their small balconies, like an Iberian village but on another continent, simple but wonderful European-style churches that catch our attention, and a calm and pleasant atmosphere to explore the town.
