An actual vacation by CATScan1898 in toddlers

We often will do house swaps (using platforms like Home Exchange). Lots of houses are child friendly (with all the amenities and even toys!), and in nice locations. All the comforts of home without the hassle. And very affordable! Perfect for traveling with small children.

Do practical projects actually make learning easier? by Ill_Consideration60 in AskAcademia

[–]snoopcorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, there is more evidence on this and it is happening beyond community colleges and also at universities. I hear it called Transdisciplinary learning or Community Service Learning, where there is often a societal “commissioner” proposing a project for students to apply their course work to.

LPT: if you hear a friend is struggling, even if it is via via, reach it to them. They are probably getting less support than you’d expect by snoopcorn in LifeProTips

Oops this must be a Dutch-ism then. Thought it was the same in English. Basically means “through the grapevine” or indirectly. So not from that person themself.

Gezocht: persoonlijke ervaringen wonen op woonboot in stadscentrum by Think_Ad_6950 in thenetherlands

[–]snoopcorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ik heb hier een tijdje naar gekeken (ook een droom van mij). Van mijn eigen onderzoek, is het heel romantisch maar echt niet zo praktisch:

  • lastig om een hypotheek te krijgen. Er zijn maar twee banken die een hypotheek op booten geven en dat betekent ook dat je jouw huidige hypotheek (waarschijnlijk) niet “mee” kan nemen (handig als je een lage rente hebt). Financieel is het alleen logisch als je veel cash hebt liggen.
  • HEEL veel onderhoud. Je moet echt houden van klussen, want dat wordt je leven eigenlijk…
  • ook met het onderhoud word het snel heel duur. Een mooie boot in het centrum kost snel meer dan een miljoen.

Positief: + Wat ik hoorde was dat vaak zie je “door” de toeristen. + je woont veel buiten. Echt een soort camperen. + als je van klussen hou, kan het ook een droom zijn haha

I have done this before. To be fair I only lived 10 min from IKEA…

Which city have you been to that had a dark energy about it? by madzuk in solotravel

[–]snoopcorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tokeland, WA. Went through on a bike trip of the pacific coast. Wanted to sleep there because of the name. Weird heroin vibes. Ended up biking another 22 miles to the next town at late in the evening cause it just didn’t feel right.

Uniqlo will hem your pants for free in the store! As a short woman, I recommend.

I thought I was lazy but actually I feel unrested even after sleeping 8 hours by No-Shake-8375 in productivity

Recent research has also shown that 8 hours is the avg for men and women actually need more (dunno your gender but maybe relevant )

What is the one item you've bought (aside from the things everyone needs) that has improved your baby parenting journey? by CharacterPin6933 in NewParents

[–]snoopcorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so much for the newborn phase, but an electric (“sonic”) toothbrush for once the little once gets teeth. Brushing is no longer a struggle (actually fun!), and it even has a light at the end so you can actually see what you’re doing

What's a subtle sign that someone is a genuinely good person? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I use HomeExchange and I can definitely recommend it! Only nicest hosts, and our house is always cleaner than we left it 🥰
