Growing radish is similar to growing carrots. You won’t be getting a new radish, however you can gather the eco-friendlies or wait on the plant to flower as well as gather the seeds, which you can plant to grow a new radish!

You requirement about an inch of the radish top as well as location it in a container with water sufficient to submerge the bottom part of your radish cutting. when roots grow, you can transfer the radish to soil. You can either gather the radish eco-friendlies as well as utilize them for salads or pesto or wait up until the plant matures as well as flowers. When it flowers, it will likewise establish seed pods which you can gather as well as plant in soil to grow radish.

Roșie

Most people throw away the seeds of tomatoes when cooking. however the tomato is one of the plants that grow fast! If you have no patience to eliminate seeds one by one, you can bury a slice in soil. Water it as well as make sure to keep the soil moist. After a week or two, the tomatoes will begin to sprout. let the stems grow longer for two much more weeks, then transfer the seedling into a larger pot.

Vânătă

You can plant eggplants by utilizing slices just like with the tomatoes, however you can likewise gather the seeds first. This way, you can save a few of the seeds as well as plant it later on.

Pechay

Growing pechay from your kitchen area scrap is easy. cut off the base of the pechay, about one to two inches long. put it in a shallow container or glass with water covering about one third of the pechay base. Make take legal action against to replace the water every other day.

After a few days, you ought to see new leaves coming out from the center as well as roots growing at the bottom. When much more leaves begin to grow as well as the roots ended up being longer, you can transfer the pechay into a pot. The pechay would take a few months to be mature sufficient to harvest, however the great thing about this is you can just cut off the leaves from the stem as well as let the pechay grow leaves again.

Usturoi

To grow your garlic, separate the garlic cloves as well as put them in a glass. (My teammate Yosh has likewise tried putting in soil promptly as well as it worked too!) Make sure the cloves are put upright just like exactly how it looks in a garlic bulb, with the pointy end up as well as the root end down.

After a week, you ought to see sprouts as well as roots on your garlic cloves. You can then transfer it to a pot, burying it 2 inches deep into the soil.

This is one more success story for us. We were able to grow ginger over the quarantine period.

You don’t requirement to utilize an entire ginger. just look for parts that have “eyes” on them, those bit paler protrusions. Some suggest to soak the ginger overnight, some suggest to put it in water up until they grow roots, however we tried planting it directly in soil as well as it worked!

To do this, take a piece of ginger as well as break it into smaller pieces. Make sure each piece has growth buds or eyes. plant it about 2 inches deep in soil with the eyes up. After a few weeks, you ought to see it sprout. You can gather the ginger after some months. The longer you let it grow, the larger the rhizome will get.

Unfortunately, we’re not going on a press trip to Grenada anymore, one of our perfectly organized home sits in the Caribbean fell through, as well as we didn’t end up home sitting in Guatemala like we thought…but all of that doesn’t matter!

From Cuba, we’ll be flying to Costa Rica, right here are the details…

Costa Rica (May 17th to June 3rd)

She was searching for somebody to take care of their house as well as cherished puppy, Jack, in Costa Rica while they went away for two weeks. The funny (perfect) thing was that we were taking a look at flights from central America to Grenada as well as discovered that the most affordable ones were out of Costa Rica.

The house is set in the relaxed jungle, with hiking tracks as well as a river nearby. just a 15 minute drive as well as we’ll show up at the beach in Dominical. They have a motorbike (yay!) that we can use, solid Web as well as Jack looks adorable.

Casey with lovable Jack as well as their house – look at that rich jungle!
Grenada (June 3rd – July 28th)

Although we were deflated as well as dissatisfied about the press trip as well as one of the Grenada home sits not working out, something even much better provided itself.

We saw on trusted home Sitters that there was a home sit offered in Grenada from June 3rd (the day we are leaving Costa Rica) to July 28th (the day we are expected to be taking care of spare Dog). We had a Skype phone phone call to meet the owner as well as after our chat, she chose to hire us to take care of her two dogs, Pumpkin as well as Macy. The dates line up so perfectly, it’s practically amazing ?

The house is found on a point in a lovely area that we understand rather well from our previous time spent on the island. The owner seems very nice, the dogs look cute, there’s an outside pool, a gardener, somebody to preserve the pool, a car offered for our utilize as well as the house is a great size. We’re extremely much looking ahead to this sit.

There are so numerous fun things to perform in Grenada, we can’t wait to return to check out more!

Posted: 10/3/2020 | October 3rd, 2020

Years ago, I wrote a post about things I like to do beyond just travel. While I drop hints here and there about the “non-Nomadic Matt” me, today I thought I’d share some interesting facts about me that are not travel related — especially since a lot of you responded to my last email about being in a creative slump with “Well, tell us more about you!”

So grab some popcorn and learn a little more about who I am and what I do when I’m not on the road:

Speaking of which, I love popcorn. Serios. It has zero nutritional value and an infinite amount of taste! I can’t get enough of it. always salted, no butter though.

I love movies. I probably watch two or three a week, either in the theater or at home on Netflix.

When I’m on a plane, I only watch bad movies — the cheesy Hollywood movies I’d never spend money to see. They’re terrible, but they are the kind of mindless entertainment I want while I’m relaxing over an ocean. It’s my way to turn my brain off for a bit.

When I’m not traveling abroad, I split my time between Austin, where I’m a resident, and NYC, where I go when it gets too hot in Texas or I need some really good sushi.

I consume an unhealthy amount of news, especially as it pertains to politics. Not just us politics — I follow the political situation in a lot of countries. While it impresses locals that I can name their prime minister and discuss recent changes in farm bills, it’s not healthy reading so much news. I’ve had to delete news apps from my phone so I would stop thinking the sky was always falling.

An Old Fashioned is the way to my heart. It is hands down my favorite drink.

My favorite liquor? Scotch, specifically peaty Scotch from Islay. (Feel free to send any bottles to 222 Broadway, floor 19, new York, NY 10038. I won’t mind! My favorite brand is Ardbeg.)

I am terrible at sports. I can’t play any, and I barely know how they work. Don’t ask me about players either. I couldn’t name one. (Though I do enjoy a good soccer match!)

I love to swing dance, though I don’t do it as often as I’d like. I learned how when I threw a Gatsby-themed birthday party for myself a few years ago and have been hooked ever since.

I love Taylor Swift. Her cheesy songs are awesome, her show production is out of this world, and I think she’s a marketing genius. (And your “Really? Come on, Matt!” will do nothing to change that. I see ya over there!)

When I write, I listen to one song on repeat over and over again. Doing so helps me focus better. The song helps me tune out the world, and then, when I’m bored with the song, I tune it out and focus on what is in front of me: my writing. I’m way more productive this way! (This post was written to Sia’s Alive!)

I don’t have any plants because they all die. I could say it’s because I travel so much but when I was a college graduate, I bought a ton of bonsai trees and even those died. So no green thumb for me!

I know all the best sushi and cocktails spots in NYC. I even run a speakeasy bar crawl for my friends who come to town. I spend a lot of time reading and learning about the ’20s and the history of cocktails.

I want to learn how to shoot a gun. Not because I’m some gun nut — I strongly dislike them, want really strict gun control, and am a regular donor to Everytown for gun safety — but because I am one of those crazy “preppers.”

I think the world is pretty much f*cked, and I’d like to know how to shoot a gun to (a) protect myself in case civilization ends and (b) hunt (another thing I want to learn how to do) for food when that happens or (c) the zombies come.

Having a plan B never hurt anyone, right?

To that end, I’d also like to learn how to shoot a bow and arrow. I think that would be really fun — and useful.

I try to spend an hour a day reading (though, lately, I haven’t been doing that as much as I would like since I’ve been busy meeting a book deadline). I’m a big fan of biographies and travel, history, and business books. I think reading and educating yourself is one of the most important things you can do in your life, and I cannot understand people who don’t read books.

How do you learn about the world? how do you improve yourself? cum te relaxezi?

I just don’t get it. education doesn’t stop at school!

I’m a morning person. I tend to wake up around 7am and do my best work before lunchtime. On a good day, I’ll get up at 6am.

I don’t drink coffee. I do drink a lot of tea, my favorite being anything in the green tea family, though I have a special love for jasmine and sencha. I would really love to take a tea class and learn more about it.

This fall I plan to sign up for French classes again and really try to learn the language. To me, French is one of the most beautiful languages in the world, and I’m really sad I don’t remember anything from my previous time learning it!

When I was a kid, I was the state champion for Magic: The Gathering. Eu și prietenii meil -a jucat mult. Am avut și un bar Mitzvah cu temă Star Trek. Deci, practic, tocilar complet!

Elephants have long been important in Thailand, where they are a symbol of religion, history, royalty, and power.

According to Buddhist legend, Queen Maya of Sakya, Lord Buddha’s mother, dreamed that a divine Bodhisattva on a white elephant touched her side. She later became pregnant, and since then, elephants have had a strong connection to divinity and royalty in Buddhism. As Thailand is a predominantly Buddhist society, elephants are held in high esteem.

Additionally, elephants were used in the logging industry to help clear trees, so there was a practical nature to their importance as well.

After a government-imposed ban on logging in 1989, the industry dwindled and suddenly all of these elephants had no “purpose.” Their owners were left needing a way to make money for their families and the care of the elephants. since most tourists came to Thailand thinking “I can’t wait to ride an elephant,” it was a lucrative transition.

Elephants were taken into cities and fed by tourists who wanted a photo. In the jungles, riding camps were set up where visitors could ride an elephant through the jungle, take their photos, and return home with tales of their amazing experience.

Elephants became big company in the country. After all, as a tourist, who wouldn’t want a chance to see or ride one? It’s a dream come true for many.

When I lived in Thailand, I learned about the true nature of elephant tourism. I learned how those elephants roaming the streets were drugged and typically starved.

And it was illegal too.

Elephants in cities had been banned for years, but, as is common in Thailand, officials turned a blind eye or were paid off.

I was always torn: do I ignore them, hoping this will eventually end the practice, or do I feed the elephant out of kindness but perpetuate this cruelty?

It wasn’t until a few years ago, after an accident that left a child, a driver, and an elephant dead, that officials in Bangkok finally cracked down and made it elephant free.

And then there’s the riding? I mean riding an elephant sounds amazing!

Until you realize how the animal is treated, especially in Thailand.

When you ride an elephant, you get a glimpse into their poor treatment. I remember once yelling at the mahout (trainer) for swinging his hook a little too hard at the elephant. It left me very perturbed – and wishing I hadn’t ridden that elephant.

I didn’t know better. There wasn’t a lot of good information about there about how to see elephants in Thailand in a socially responsible way.

But the more time I spent in Thailand, the more I learned that there are no good elephant riding parks in all of Thailand. All abuse and mistreat their elephants — despite what they say. Moreover, riding elephants is actually terrible for their growth and development.

Luckily, there’s been a large movement in the last few years to protect the elephants and, now tourists, have a lot more ethical options when it comes to elephants in Thailand.

The pionner is Elephant Nature Park. Led by Lek Chailert, Elephant Nature Park (ENP) has been around since 1996 and is the biggest conservation and elephant rescue organization in Thailand.

Located outside of Chiang Mai, it is currently home to around 80 elephants (plus a menagerie of other animals) that have been saved from the tourism and logging industries. It’s a “retirement” home for elephants

Demand is so high, not only for visitors but volunteers too, that you have to make reservations in advancement to check out (for volunteers, that might mean up to a year in advance). When I tried to check out a few years ago, they were already booked for the next month!

This time, I booked ahead and was able check out and see all the good they do:

The more you learn about elephants in Thailand, the more you realize the need for change. It was heartbreaking listening to the stories of each elephant and seeing so many with broken backs, legs, and missing feet. Luckily, because of organizations like ENP and more socially conscious tourists, things are changing.

ENP has started to work with the riding camps to give up riding and move toward more animal-friendly practices. Thais are learning that people will pay big bucks to feed, bathe, and play with elephants and that this can be more lucrative, more popular, and more sustainable than offering rides.

As such, there are now a lot of places around Thailand where you can see and interact with elephants in a responsible way throughout the country:

Wildlife pals foundation of Thailand – A full-day check out is 1,600 THB per person and a half-day check out is 1,100 THB per person (excluding transport). wfft.orgl

Elephant Hills – luxury jungle camps with two-day tours that cost between 14,000-16,000 THB. elephanthills.com

The Surin project – home to upwards of 200 elephants, here you can volunteer for up to eight weeks. Pretulis 13,000 THB per week (7 days is the minimum volunteer period). surinproject.org.

Boon Lotts Elephant Sanctuary – The cost to check out is 6,000 THB per night, and reservations must be made in advance. blesele.org.

The elephant camps aren’t gone yet. They won’t be for a long, long time. but with more educated tourists and an economic incentive for locals to treat the elephants better, hopefully, we can significantly reduce these camps in the next few years (and eventually eliminate them).

So the next time you’re in Thailand, please don’t ride the elephants. If you want to see an elephant, check out Elephant Nature Park or a similar program and help protect these remarkable creatures.

You’ll get a closer and more personal interaction with the elephants, and you’ll be doing good. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.

How to check out Elephant Nature Park

ENP is located near Chiang Mai, though they do have branches around the country (and in Cambodia) that also offer interactive, ethical experiences.

Short check outs to ENP last 6-7 hours and cost 2,500 THB per person. This includes a vegetarian lunch buffet as well as transportation to/from Chiang Mai.

Their popular overnight check out (2 days, 1 night) costs 5,800 THB per person and includes meals, transportation, and accommodation.

For a 7-day volunteer experience, expect to pay between 12,000-15,000 THB depending on which branch you visit.
