If you want your children to have a better place to live, you should allocate some time to watch
this!
It’s a website about the cycle of staff in nature. The things we buy – how do we make them and where do they go after we don’t use them anymore and throw them away. You will realize why recycling is important and especially why is so bad to buy staff that you don’t need!
and of course, after watching it, you should put some energy in changing things if this matters to you…we really DO have only one earth…
a new end, a new begining… May 14, 2008

For the last 2 months i have been living in a total uncertainty…i still am:))…but now i am laughing about it. It took me a long time to relax and not stress about the uncertainty…i had to re-find myself…and re-become a careless teenager…and i love it. it reminds me of the days when i was in AIESEC: hitchhiking to some conference, dressing careless, ruling at school just “because”, still having my imagination, writing, traveling, dreaming big…
how did it happen?
i got a job…i think i applied for about 40 positions, and i finally decided. i ended my contract here sooner, to start the new job when they needed me (“yesterday”) but in Switzerland is not that easy – without a work permit you can have as many employment contracts as you wish. so i need to wait for an answer for about 4 weeks. on the other hand my rent contract ends and i have to move out…i can’t rent another flat, because without the work permit i will just move out…of the country…so while waiting i started dreaming…thinking about me, my life, my hobbies and so on…and actually enjoying the “being between contracts” and i realized the “end” has many good parts. and guess what, i have no idea where i will be next week, or the week after…isn’t it wonderful? …the planning and thinking just killed me for a while…but now i am back….creative, funny, enjoying it to the max…feels like i am finally acting like my age

You CAN!
But I guess you already knew that:)
Here is also an ingenious way on how to help them. You can make a loan as small as 25$ to help entrepreneurs from all over the world. You can see their story and decide to whom to lend money.
Maybe is not the best way to help make a difference in the world but it is a good way…so take a sec to look at the website of the NGO that supports this: www.kiva.org
I was positively impressed to see that more than half of the entrepreneurs are women. Bravo!
