Fans of the green world will always find where to put their efforts. Some of them take care of flowers on the windowsill, someone breaks a flower bed in the yard, and a Londoner Steve Wheen Greens a City!
Recently, cultural guerrilla has been spreading around the world - a guerrilla war by artistic methods for a better and more beautiful world. Within the framework of this large-scale horizontal volunteer project, there is also an offshoot of guerrilla gardening, whose goal is to green space in the most unexpected places. One of the active participants in this movement is Steve Win, a Londoner.
Vin calls himself a "gardener without a garden." After all, the site for his work is the whole of London. Steve sorely lacks green space in the British capital. But he does not wait for the authorities to create new parks and squares, he took the initiative into his own hands.
Steve Win selects the most unusual locations in London and creates new green spaces there. Moreover, this author's strong point is minimalism. He does not plant large trees and bushes, he makes small scaled areas, real masterpieces of miniature art.
For example, Steve turns a puddle on a London street into a lake with trees and benches set up around it. The hole in the asphalt, thanks to the efforts of the "green" artist, is transformed into a tennis court. The cracked wall of the building is being transformed into a picnic spot for gnomes (or some other little fairy-tale creatures).
Each work of Steve Vince is a tiny world with nature, props, spirit and mood. And all this is in those places where until very recently there was nothing at all. At least nothing good!
And even holes in the asphalt, potentially dangerous for drivers and pedestrians, Vince turns into works of art, "green" art.

How did Yugoslavia differ from other European countries during World War II, or Guerrilla warfare without the right to retreat
The contribution of Yugoslavia to the destruction of fascism is deservedly called one of the most significant. The Yugoslav underground in the Great Patriotic War began to be active immediately after Hitler's attack on the USSR. The anti-fascist war was a reduced-scale picture of an all-Soviet feat. The ranks of Tito's national liberation army consisted of communists and supporters of the Union, opponents of nationalism and fascism. They pinned down numerous German divisions until the liberation of Belgrade

Some of the celebrities cannot live a day without makeup and, and who can calmly do without a make-up
Every celebrity has their own distinctive, recognizable style. Some give preference to pretentious images, while others, on the contrary, try not to stand out from the crowd, becoming almost gray mice behind the scenes, who are trying once again not to catch the eye of the paparazzi. But one way or another, they all have their own reasons for being who they are. For some, excessive makeup is the norm and a kind of visiting card, and for some, its absence is a call to love ourselves as we are, do not hesitate
