ABANDONED VEHICLES FROM AROUND THE WORLD

Ship in Kamchatka, Russia

There are thousands of abandoned places from all over the world, including different vehicles too.

Even though they have been left behind to rot, i always think there is a beauty about them and and a curious story like why are they there? And why haven't they been moved?

Here are some unusual abandoned vehicles, and interestingly most are from Russia.

TEMPORARY HOUSING SOLUTION: For Richmond, Virginia

Sometimes we end up staying in a hotel rather than our own homes, for reasons beyond our control like problems with our own house or apartment that make it inhabitable.

And sometimes we are taken away from home for several weeks for business or leisure purposes.

Would it be nice though to actually stay in a house or an apartment instead of bedroom in a hotel?
If you are in need of extended stay Richmond,Virginia then Dabney Properties have homes that, unlike usual property lettings you can rent out for just 30 days or more.

This is alot better than staying in a hotel room for all that time. You could have your own space and rooms just like you were at home.

All the houses and apartments come fully furnished, so you wouldn't have to worry about hiring furniture or bringing your own.

FASCINATING HOLLAND HOTEL: Controversy Tram Inn

There are some fascinating hotels from around the world, but i have never saw one that has been made from a Tram.

Looking at it from the outside who would know it would be so stunning and welcoming inside? The site of the tram trains is called the Controversy Tram Inn, and is based in Hoogwould, Holland.

All the features inside have been incorporated into the whole theme of it. For instance one of the tires is a sink, the bed which is made from a lifeboat and a No Parking sign used as a table.

There are 2 trams available for guests, that house 4 spectacular bed and breakfast rooms or you could rent the whole of the tram out.

GATWICK HOTELS WITH ENTERTAINMENT: Unwind Before Your Journey

I always hate the drive up to my airport, so the last thing i want to be doing is waiting around for 2 hours in a departure lounge.

I like to get there the night before and stay in the UK's Gatwick hotels with entertainment . The more entertainment the better, as sitting in my hotel room is nice for a while but all the time.

You could chill out in the spa or your hot tub if you have one, grab a drink at the bar, have a nice meal in the restaurant, use the Wii Fii facilities, play in the games rooms and much more.

Plus i once i have checked in 2 hours before the day after for my flight, i will go back to my hotel room for an hour or so and watch some TV and just relax.

BRITAIN'S MOST PICTURESQUE STREET: The Shambles in York

Peaceful street .......

A beautiful medieval street in York that dates back to the 15th century has been voted Britain's most picturesque street by Google Street View Awards.

Known as The Shambles, the pathways are cobbled and is full of bustling shops, restaurants and tourists attractions like ghost walks and history tours.

.... Then many tourists flock to this popular area.

With historical features like the narrow streets, leaning roofs that nearly meet in the middle and the mention of the street in the Domesday book, it is easy to see why it was voted the best and Europe's best persevered medieval street.

The name comes from the Saxon "Fleshammels"which translates into 'the street of butchers'. The window sills of the houses used to have meat for sale displayed there (pictured below).
Now the butchers have been replaced by antique and jewelry shops.

This little street attracts thousands of visitors each year and has been persevered really well. Hopefully it will still be there in a few more centuries to come.
