The Bag Is Full!! (More than...;)

So many material donations I've received only from the stores of the village of Wald, I even had to ask the sister of Shiku for giving them an additional hand luggage :)
Thanks a lot to the following stores who have donated (in the order of I have them in mind):
Augen auf Optik
Schnyder Mode
Kinderkleider Secondhand Langstrumpf
Papeterie Hintermeister
Apotheke Wald
Switcher Shop Wald

All those shops are located in Wald ZH, within a nice shopping street. So it's absolutely no fault to come up here for shopping in a lovely, familiar environment, far away from the usual shopping stress :) And if you walk up the Hömelstreet, you'll get a coffee from me in the fantastic scenery of a Hotel built in the year 1900. In share of a humble donation for my kamanushiku funds ;)

Low tech for better quality of life

In the so called modern civilization people are surrounded by a whole bunch of high tech products which make our daily life more comfortable, easier and cleaner .

Oh, and before you go to work you quickly put the waste bag in front of your door where it will be picked up soon by the refuse collection. Imagine how your life would be without all those wonderful things? Cooking over the open fire, pouring the human remains into the creek, everywhere is rubbish because no one comes and pick it up and you have to sit in a small little shack which is dark even during the daytime. That's exactly how many people on this world have to live. With a little bit of low tech, simple but useful things for daily life, their life quality can be raised significantly. And the best is that the raw material low tech is for free then it's made out of rubbish. In this article you will read more about some interesting low tech concepts which can be realized almost everywhere on this planet. Everywhere where rubbish is present...
