Kuching, Sarawak, Borneo, Travel Guide and Accommodation
Wednesday, January 11th, 2012 / Arpan Mehta

Kuching is one of my favourite Asian Capitals. I think it is a very easy place to travel for Westerners and is a great base to explore the Borneo Interior. I also review the backpackers accommodation I am staying at, The B and B Inn. I’ve been here for a few weeks and feel they do a number of things right with regard to tourist accommodation. The B and B Inn is the first registered inn catering for backpackers in Kuching. A lot of backpacker’s accommodation in Kuching are not registered and can lead to problems with travel insurance if things go wrong, eg fire To prebook accommodation at the B & B Inn Phone: +60 82 237 366 email: phanlily@hotmail.com Address: 30-1 Jalan Tubuan, Kuching, Sarawak, Borneo XF100 Canon CineF preset

Senegal, you can travel and help Africa
Tuesday, January 10th, 2012 / Yakaar Africa

Did you know Senegal?

Senegal is a country located on the Atlantic coast of Africa. Has roughly 13 million inhabitants and is ranked 144 out of 169 countries in the U.N.O. Human development ranking. The survival expectancy when born, of the Senegalese population is 56 years, 25 years less than the Spanish population. Its per capita earnings is 60 EU Bucks a month, 35 times lower than the one in Spain. There are lots of folk wanting to help the Senegal, maybe, because they have fallen crazy about its beautiful landscapes.

Its beautiful beaches found along its shore, frequently kilometers and miles long. But above all , with the people, Senegal’s greatest asset. Especially friendly and friendly folks, they are incredible people. As expected Senegal is commonly known as “Teranga’s” country, meaning “hospitality country”.

NGO’s and Senegal

That's why lots of NGOs are presently working in Senegal. But NGOs wotking in Africa’s should pay atention to 3 fundamental principles: First, to tyr to get a nearly complete lack of executive costs. All of the raised cash should be dedicated to the projects. The executive tasks should be undertaken on a voluntary basis by members of the NGO.

Secondly, a total involvement with local shareholders should exist. No project should be undertaken without prior approval from Senegal’s authorities nor without the explicit support of the population, which should take full responsibility, bring his work and, so far as possible , their own resources.

What can you do for this country?

We emphasize the importance of the durability of the projects. No-one wants to see orchards, farms and schools to be abandoned,letting the population in a same or worse situation than before. Digital Marketing helps as well , and new technologies are giving a new tool for development.

So it shouldn't be undertaken any school, or any medicare facility, not ensuring before that it'll have his teacher, or nurse, or doctor. And in the case of orchards and farms, part of the production should be dedicated to the sale. So Senegalese folk can have the resources to buy implements and tools and seeds -of course- for the following crop.

Yakaar Africais a non profit organisation that works in progress projects for Africa like ONG Senegal .

An Essential Look At Renaissance Arts
Saturday, January 07th, 2012 / Fabio DeMartino

The emergence of the Renaissance Movement in Italy took place in the 15th century in Florence when the thought hit several artists that culture, art, architecture and civilization that suffered a drawback in the middle ages can be made to revive the glory of the past. Renaissance literally means ‘rebirth’

Filippo Brunelleschi takes the credit for having fuelled the Art Renaissance Movement in Italy though he is not the most famous name connected with it. He was an architect by profession and was responsible for laying down the scientific laws of perspective based on which the Renaissance Art in Italy flowered later.

Art of Italy had always been two-dimensional apart from the exploits of Giotto di Bondone, an influential participant in the Christian Art Movement in Italy in the 13th century.

The fact that Italian artists were able to make a notable progress in the development of art by making a good use of the laws of perspective made Renaissance Art from Italy more important. Understandably Renaissance Art was creating glorious art in Italy that reflected nature and the world in reality.

During the ancient Roman period, art in Italy was more a tool of the state and it dealt with only religious subjects under the favour of the Catholic Church. It was renaissance art that really opened out the scope of art in Italy. Though religious themes dominated the renaissance art in Italy, nature and the description of the world in reality found placement in the renaissance art in the later period.

In this time anatomy became the forte of numerous renaissance artists in Italy and hence human form was delineated to nicety by them in their work. The statue of St. George in Italy, a magnum opus of Donatello is a sample of renaissance art in Italy.

Renaissance touched its summit during the 16th century in Italy. The country contributed pieces of matchless quality. Contemporaries like Michelangelo, De Vinci and Raphael formed the core of the renaissance art movement in Italy.

These Renaissance artists became so popular in their time that they were in demand in the various cities of Italy whose officialdom and heads of state wanted them to create works of art in their places.

Art in Italy can no longer be described as religious in whole because it is no longer the preserve of the church to direct such things in a secular state. However, there are still Italian artists who deal with Christian themes. One such artist is Giacomo Manza who has been influential in the field of Christian sculpture during the 20th Century. The Bronze door of St Peter’s Basilica was created by Manza.

Renaissance sculpture in Italy is the finest on the planet. If you would like to view some good examples, read our page on things to do in Pisa.
