Best Winter Activities in Amsterdam
The streets of Amsterdam are much less crowded with the throngs of tourists that you see in the summer and with the winter chills comes a sense of ‘gezellig’, a Dutch word with no direct English translation. It encompasses the heart of Dutch culture. The meaning includes everything from friendly, to cozy; from comfortable to relaxing; from joyous to gregarious! Though you may not understand it now, the only way to true comprehend this untranslatable word is to experience it yourself!

The Fantasy World of Skyrim
The world of fantasy is a world without limits. From ancient lone travellers to intergalactic wars, it is no surprise why so many of us love to immerse ourselves in the fantasy genre. However, constructing a prosperous fantasy world is no easy task. The secret lies in the details, and the more thorough the mechanics of its universe, the better. Hence why the best fantasy worlds hold immensely detailed histories and narratives, carefully thought of character relations, and contain natural laws that challenge ones we’re familiar with within our world. Magic and folklore, mythical creatures not found on Earth, and skylines filled with planets and other celestial beings we can only dream of are only a few examples of what is possible in the world of fantasy – and non-come close to the fantasy world of the Elder Scrolls, Tamriel, and especially the province of Skyrim, home of the Nords.

Snow White and the Non-Poisonous Pear
Snow White stood at her window for what seemed like forever. Her night, black hair stroked her rosy, pink cheeks as she looked out at the front garden, tapping her fingers rapidly against the wooden windowsill. The world, like always, looked perfect, as if taken out of a fairy tale. The woods were rife with life today, and each came to greet Snow White that morning. The squirrels scattered across the highest branches of the trees, the family of deer grazed quietly on the rain-dewed lawn, and the birds sang their morning songs. The day was perfect, and Snow White knew what was to happen to her. She was waiting for her wicked stepmother to arrive.

7 Secrets of the London Underground
The London Underground has served Londoners since 1863. Since its opening, up to 2 million people ride the tubes every single day on their daily commute. It is no secret that it has become part of London’s identity and an invaluable part of its people’s daily lives. I personally use the Underground at least 10 times per week for various journeys around the Capital and with the joys of the 16-25 Railcard, it becomes the cheapest method of transport in London by far, even beating the London Bus in price and speed, but I think I will save that for another post.

Vocal Subscribe: Say Hello to Your Audience!
Since we joined the Vocal platform a little over a year ago, the platform has continued to develop its design, features, and functions available for both creators and their audiences. The Vocal Team have gone to great lengths to listen to their users, and despite writing on the platform for a short amount of time, we have had multiple opportunities to have our voices heard and help to shape Vocal into a platform that provides us with the tools necessary to continue to create. From surveys to reward-based interactions, it’s clear that the creators on Vocal have a base understanding of what they need as creators, and the Vocal team are quick to respond to their suggestions. I am thus delighted to share my evaluation of arguably one of the most sought-after features on the platform – allowing audiences to subscribe to their favourite creators.

The Courier
Once upon a time, there was a small town that had a peculiar mail courier. No one knew which company they worked for or where they even came from. All that was known about this mysterious deliverer was that their packages were all wrapped in the same brown paper and that they wore all black with a face mask and sunglasses, creating an unrecognisable being.

With Mona at Last
There comes a time when the unimaginable crosses the boundaries of fiction. The unpredictable that nobody could prepare for. This is one of those times. You know the thief’s name, and that seemed to be enough for the eyes of the public, no questions asked. It frustrates me that no one seemed to see the bigger picture and understand the inner mechanics of the operation. I’ve had a good enough life, and it’s time the world knew the truth. It’s time to reveal the mastermind of the theft that shook the art world - the story of the shadow that stole the Mona Lisa.
