A Cargo full of Literature
I have just discovered "Cargo Literary," a Canadian online literary magazine that publishes transformational travel experience.
Here is their "vision": "We publish creative nonfiction, memoir, personal essay, poetry, book reviews, and visual art including photography —submissions that evoke a strong sense of character, setting, movement, and the internal journey [...] Traveling invites us to shift our perspectives and asks us to draw upon the unfamiliar. Traveling seeks intention, requires communication.

EnviroNutrition for a Healthy Reading Life
Rading and writing is not enough to lead a healthy, balanced life.
We also need to exercise, use our time/resources wisely and eat even more wisely.
That's what "life designer" (architect-cum-nutritionist) Ye Chu suggests with her newly-devised, Vancouver-born concept of EnviroNutrition.
By the way, she uses a quote by the American writer & philosopher of good life Mark Twain to get her message through: "The secret of getting ahead is getting started."

Our son Leonardo (16) made this book trailer to promote my book "The Afrikaner" online. This is just a preview. What do you think of it? Would you suggest any changes? Thanks for your feedback! Arianna
