Transparent capsule hotels hang 400ft above Peru's Sacred Valley

Want to push your adrenaline as high as it will go during your next vacation? 


   For about $300 per person, the Natura Vive Skylodge in Peru's Sacred Valley offers thrill-seekers the chance to sleep within a completely transparent pod wedged high on a mountainside. The 192 square feet suites are constructed from aerospace aluminum and weather-resistant polycarbonate, and each capsule has a private bathroom separated from the bedroom, complete with sink and bathroom with curtains for privacy.



   

   The package includes breakfast, gourmet dinner with wine, transportation from Cusco and professional bilingual guides. But before they even get to their hotel rooms, daredevils must climb a 400-foot cliff face. Travelers will be provided with mountain climbing equipment such as climbing harness, helmet, gloves, etc.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable.

French supermarket promotes 'ugly' fruits and vegetables to reduce food waste

When was the last time you bought a weird-shaped fruit or veggie? A disfigured eggplant, a gnarled carrot, a hideous orange, or a deformed apple? You probably have a hard time remembering because growers usually throw out any misshapen produce, since grocery stores only want flawless (or almost flawless) crops. If there are lumps, bruises, or other deformities, retailers are likely to reject them. To raise awareness against food waste, Marcel Paris introduced a brilliant ad campaign called the Inglorious Fruits and Vegetables . The agency created these posters for Intermarche, France's third largest supermarket chain, to inform people that though these foods might by ugly, they are as good as any others.
