As a child growing up, among the world’s many aged old secrets, the ones that fascinated me the most was the secret world that lived on beneath the covers of the great old trees of the forests. I was always an imaginative child and the stories and folklore of the magical world of faeries only fed to the building of a strong belief that there was truth in these stories. Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion – some would just rub this all off as fiddlesticks but the one thing you can’t deny is the fact that the ‘existence’ ...


Time sure that does fly. It seems like just last month did we put on a feature for St. Patrick's (Green Beers) but lo and behold, a full year has come to pass and we are once more here on St. Patricks Day – 2010 of course.

There are many exciting things that happen worldwide during St. Patrick's, No longer is it just confined to Ireland alone. In fact you’ll find the ...



Alright so it has been decided, after much ‘family’ discussion and pet care research; a rabbit is going to be your new family pet. Bunny is coming home and the decision is final because you’re done all the home preparations necessary to give it a place in your home and you’ve promised your little Angel you’re going to take her out tomorrow to pick out the ‘lucky’ rabbit. It’s the night before and you’re laying there in bed wide awake from the lingering thought of, “Gosh, have I made a mistake?”

Well ...



Parenting is certainly full of surprises. You never can quite predict what’s next with your child but one thing is for sure some paths are pretty much fixed so there will be this one milestone on your parenting road that has to do with pets. There will most certainly come a point in time when your little angel is going to be bold enough to ask you for a pet and there’s really quite little that you can do about it. Often enough, as a parent when faced with this situation is left to weigh between two options, disappoint the child with a firm “No” ...


Okay this one is really cool or not, quite depends on how you view it. I once wrote about eco-friendly menstrual pads, which got a bit of a mixed reaction from my fellow readers. I guess it does put women off to learn that they have to clean, wash, dry and reuse their feminine towels. I agree it is quite the bother and it takes getting used too but frankly that’s how it was done in the olden days before disposable sanitary napkins came about.

But here’s ...



If the world was a perfect place and life was fair and just, then we’d all be peacefully making a decent living doing what we all loved the most. But since that’s not how it works, most of us are stuck at dead end jobs that we really stick to because it pays the bills and there’s hardly room or time to think of any joy to be associated to it. In all honestly my day job is a drag that’s giving me breakouts but I’m blessed because I found Girlsustainable which allows for me to combine my love for green and writing together.

Now perhaps it isn’t ...



One man’s trash is another man’s treasure...we’ve all heard that line before. And usually only 2 things come to mind when I hear someone say it – either the man’s talking about his grand collection of crap or he’s talking about a relationship. But never in my wildest dream did I actually think or see that phrase taking to life literally until Justin Gignac came along with his eccentric idea about boxing garbage ( I don’t mean those things that no one really has a need for but actual ...


This morning when I decided to type in the words –“eco + blue” into my browser’s search bar, I had a different expectation/intention for what would turn up and honestly urinals were not amongst them.
But that’s the great thing about the unexpected isn’t it? It leaves room for wonderful surprises and ‘amusing’ pieces of writings. Well whether or not this one counts as amusing is left to you to decide but one thing I do know is that it is informative so bear with me.

Continuing from yesterday, we’re visiting/introducing to you a world of luxury hidden amongst the many promises of eco-tourism. If you ever had the impression that going eco conscious on a holiday meant living in mud huts and bathing in rivers then this series of article will change that mindset forever.

South East Asia
I know we’ve already listed 2 luxurious resort for this destination but seeming that this region is a very popular vacation spot, it seems only fair that I cover more countries.

Thailand

It’s been a tiring day. I’ve driven miles across town in this sickening hot weather for one meeting after another and frankly it’s got me all worn out. Finally back in the comforts of my home I’m refreshed at the sight of these fantastic holidays advertised in the magazines. There are mesmerising, beautiful, picture perfect promises of tranquillity and everything that I would ever want in recuperation from burnout. Only problem is…such luxury are clearly beyond my means – that is if I want to come home from ...
