@adalluch This is old information, they have updated it to become even more generous. Women under 30 will get zero tax with one child and other women will get it with two children or more.

Travel tip 1: Learn how to say hello and thank you in the local language. It can make a big difference for your travel experience. It will bring smiles and may even be the start of friendships and interesting conversations.

Traveling the world has taught me that the world is a much nicer and friendlier place than the media is trying to portray. Obviously this isn’t 100% the case, but from my experience, mosf of the tlme!

Burg Eltz in Germany, one of my favorite castles that I have visited in Europe. One of the most fascinating facts about Burg Eltz is that it is still home to the same family that once built it back in the 12th century, 33 generations ago.

Repost Ralf Dujmovits The deaths of four climbers on October 7th in the avalanche on Shisha Pangma (8,027 m) should not be in vain. We, the mountaineering and expedition community, should discuss and learn from this bitter event. I am not writing this to blame anybody – I only want to help climbers to better understand why it is almost never a good idea to attempt the normal, north-facing route on Shisha Pangma in the late post-monsoon (autumn) season. 🔴 In spring and autumn, there is usually a stable high pressure system over the Tibetan plateau which brings many days of good weather in a row. 🔴This high pressure system sucks in air at high altitudes. On Shisha Pangma‘s summit ridge this creates a relatively constant and strong flow of air from south to north (see fourth picture). 🔴 This southerly air flow transports snow from the southern side of Shisha Pangma onto its north face (see first photo). 🔴 While being transported, the six arms of many snow crystals break off and thus lose much of their ability to bind together. Continued wind can press the crystals together and form surface wind slabs which can form avalanches. 🔴 A second problem is that when it is very cold outside – like from the end of September onwards - moisture evaporates from inside the snowpack. This moisture condenses as it moves up through the snowpack and forms cup-like and angular snow crystals. This process results in snow that has the consistency of large grains of sugar - it is called faceted snow. 🔴 The gigantic slope above 7,300 m on Shisha Pangma’s north face (see third photo) is not steep enough to regularly avalanche naturally. However, when disturbed by the added weight of a climber or even through the vibrations of approaching climbers the faceted snow can collapse and, along with the hundreds of tons of snow on top of it, begin to slide. 🔴 The very cold temperatures of late autumn and the almost complete lack of sunshine on the slope preserve this particular avalanche danger in the snowpack – sometimes for weeks or months. 🔴 In spring, the longer, warmer days and the sunshine that hits the slope (even obliquely) help to bond the snow and significantly lower the avalanche danger. Of course, there are always exceptional weather conditions at any time of year, but generally speaking, Shisha Pangma is much safer to climb in April/ May than in September/October. I climbed Shisha Pangma’s main summit twice: one time by the normal route and one time via the South Face. On another occasion, we turned back from Shisha Pangma’s central summit because the wind was too strong to stay on the safer ridge line and the avalanche conditions were not safe enough to make the traverse across the big slope to the main summit (second image). buff.ly/3Qdag8m

Själandsklinten in the Swedish High Coast. This place is located near Nordingrå. One of the most beautiful sunset spots that I have found in Sweden! 🇸🇪 #travel #photographer #scandinavia

@SparaBorMan @Systeryster8 Varför skulle du undvika tomat/syrligt med gjutjärnspanna? Det släpper ju då ifrån sig än mer järn i en gjutjärnspanna. Exakt det man vill. Däremot ska man aldrig förvara mat i en gjutjärnspanna. Finns även lättgjutjärnspanna från Ronneby Bruk om vanlig känns för tung.

@Ten_Bagger Viktigt budskap 👏 man lär sig också otroligt mycket om sig själv och världen när man reser iväg utanför sin komfortzon.

Julen 2013 lämnade jag och frun Sverige för en jordenruntresa på 7 veckor. Hawaii-Fiji-NZ-Vietnam-Kina (Shanghai/Peking). Till alla yngre följare: Passa på att res och se världen! Depåns storlek är långt ifrån allt i livet. Nu har vi villa och 2 underbara döttrar. Trevlig helg!
