Go for it Nutty!

Monday, September 19, 2011

Why are Cashew nuts so expensive?

Well actually, much of the work of processing the nuts is done by hand.

Let's check the process:
-The fruit falls off the tree.
-People pick up the fruit and twist off the nut.
-People put the nut in water for soaking.
-People lay out the nuts to be sun dried.
-People crack open every single nut individually. They use a machine that is powered by their hands and feet.
-People pick out the nut from the shell by hand.
-People remove the red skin from the nut with a knife.
-People season as they wish.

BBQ


Thai Coconut curry


Wasabi

Nuts in Myanmar

If only i could travel now...We invite you to take part in our dream...

Who said that adventure travel is just for one group of people who walk miles each day and sleep in tents? Premium Travel, distinguished from others by enclosing excellence. They are charming, comfortable, relaxing and exotic, totally unique. They allow travelers to enjoy the best of our world without missing anything.
This is a journey that combines adventure, culture and comfort to enjoy tranquility in this country of eternal joy and color. From a small group of participants we invite you to visit the Buddhist temples of calm and serenity of the landscapes.

In this mountainous country of jungles, vast tracts of teak forests, the rivers flow like Irawady beautiful and very fertile valleys which will take our trip.
We arrived in Rangoon, located in the river delta Irawady typical capital of Southeast Asia because of its tranquility and its environment that emphasizes the presence of the former British colonialism.

Rangoon is a fascinating city, we will have a glimpse into its magnificent temples and walk through its alleys and narrow streets to admire the Shwedagon pagoda, the so-called golden mystery to 2500 years old, enjoy the magic of a sunset in these stops is something that leaves us memories ...
Leaving Yangon, we headed to Mandalay, the city of gold, the last capital of the kings of Burma and the religious and cultural center of the country, we know their colorful temples, pagodas and Buddhist monasteries of nature over several visits.
Visit Bagan, one of the most important in terms of architectural Asia. Places like the caves of Pindaya with its thousand Buddhas, the floating gardens of Inle Lake, the extinct volcano of Mount Popa, the Golden Rock and a myriad of markets and Buddhist temples will be part of our journey.
Those who want to deepen their knowledge of the rich historical legacy of the temple of Angkor may opt for an unforgettable extension to Cambodia or relaxing Ngapali Beach - Myanmar.
 
And what about the price of this dream?
From Portugal (the country where I am writing) the price of travel by air is about 1300 . Such a program stands at around € 1900...jeez I think i'll back to bed now...

Extreme Train Surfing

I never found it very interesting the idea of doing ​​ParkourJumping from one set of stairs to a handrail smeared with fat, well to me, it doesn't seem to be exactly the smartest idea...
 However, if you're looking for a sport that brings together jumps, speed and danger, then you can always go to India and join the club of those nutty train pirates .. Now that's Adrenaline! And that's also a hell of a stylish way to lose an arm!

A new (nutty) trend is born!

Bored with the usual holiday? Why not try something more intense, exhausting and dangerous? How about enlisting in the Libyan rebel forces?



Bradley Hope, a reporter covering Libya’s uprising, writes in Abu Dhabi newspaper The National that he recently made a curious discovery near An Nawfaliyah: Chris Jeon, a 21-year old University of California–Los Angeles math student.

That’s Jeon in the picture above, very unsafely resting his rifle on the ground with the barrel pointed up while his new buddies crowd around. Spoiler: He doesn’t have any military experience...

Someone has too much time and money on his hands...
The Hope describes Jeon someone "who took a wrong turn on Their Way to the beach or the Santa Monica Pier," dressed in his jersey in LA the battlefield, Asking dudes If They Can Teach hin how to shoot an AK-47. Or Trying to - he does not speak Arabic. "I want to fight in Sirte! (WTF?!)

Jeon surely doesn’t mean any harm. And it’s not as if the Libyans he’s with are super-professional soldiers. But they’re fighting for their freedom and their lives. Jeon is taking a cavalier detour through their war, bringing along his video camera to pick up some “great footage.” Hopefully he won’t get himself or anyone hurt while he finishes up his war-zone road trip.
