Let’s talk cars. Cute ones. In a matching mint green hue.

Rare examples of the 1950s Fiat 600 Multipla and 600 Jolly are going up…

Mickey Mouse had the Coolest Caravan Ever

Long before modern mobile homes had their fancy gadgets and convertible floor plans at the touch of a button, Mickey, Daffy and Goofy were already a step ahead. Mickey’s Trailer is a 1938 animated short film produced by Walt Disney featuring Mickey’s highly adaptable airstream trailer and shows the sheer inventiveness of the Disney gang– way ahead…

The Vintage Supercars Rotting away in a Forest (and that’s how the owner wants it)

This might be a painful sight for classic car enthusiasts. Jaguar, Rolls-Royce, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, BMW; just a few of the iconic names whose logos you would never expect to find on vehicles in such a sorry state. But what might really shock you is that these unfortunate automobiles are not actually abandoned, and their owner is…

Automania: The Warehouse of Pop-culture Relics

Bill Saveira, or ‘Jingletown Bill’ used to be a car salesman with a ‘maniacal obsession for old cars’. Today he is the founder of Automania, the film industry’s go-to treasure chest for just about anything, from a fleet of 1960s police cars to a life-sized Indian cigar store sculpture– yes, his collection is that random…

The Travelling Library of Sketchbooks

“It’s like a food truck where you get sketch books instead of Tacos”. So here’s one of those projects that makes you wonder, how does something like this manage to exist? The Sketchbook Project is an innovative art project that pretty much allows anyone to participate in art and have their work seen by people all…

Sorry, this American Gypsy Airstreamer is Not Yours

Sometimes, full-on bohemian decor, a.k.a, shabby chic, can be just a little ‘too much’ for the home. But ya know where it’s not too much?! In a vintage Airstream trailer! Oh yeah… So this Airstreamer actually belongs to American country singer, Dierks Bentley who had it lying around in a bit of a run-down state…

Stop Everything. It’s a Teeny Tiny Trailer

Just stop what you’re damn well doing and look at this tiny pink vintage trailer. Just look at it! It’s basically better than the real thing. Because, cupcakes. That’s it. I want tiny balloons for my birthday and will not accept anything less. So who is the tiny magical leprechaun behind all this? A talented little…

The Little Blue Car that Never Was

The Mystery of the Lost Microcar … I love to come across lost cars of the past and this beauty in baby blue is no exception. Behold the Alca Volpe, probably the rarest of Italian microcars, only ten of these cars were ever made following a mysterious turn of events involving the manufacturer… Met with…

The Green Hippie Beach Bus

Travel notes from Greece I found something neat-o today and thought I’d show you… Hidden in the trees behind an empty beach was this big old abandoned Mercedes bus. It looks like it was a bit of a hippie camping spot back in the day. Inside there’s not much to write home about, it was…

Girls on Bikes

There aren’t enough girls on bikes. If I ever see one, I have to stop and wonder, sort of like when you see a female taxi driver. There is something seriously inspiring and powerful about a woman taking over what society still assumes is a man’s territory. Photographer and motorcyclist herself, Lanakila MacNaughton is looking for…
