August is synonimous to vacation in the northern hemisphere, and if you want to get free from it all (even all your cloth) why not spending your Naturist Holidays in the sunny Portuguese corner of Europe? As conditions improve with resorts and campings flourishing, desert beaches are being discovered by naked tourists. Pictures from one of our recent contributors Patricia de Melo Moreira |

Drug addition rehab
|
|
One hope on drug addicts rehabilitation is Accelerated Neuro-Regulation, a method that submits the patient to an intense medically regulated withdrawal period while under anesthesia. Dr. Andre Waismann, who developed the program 10 years ago, says ANR produces a high success rate by treating drug addiction as a neurological problem and not a social and psychological problem. |

Surprising shaped pottery
|
|
Serving wine from a phallus-shaped bottle or drinking from a mug with a surprise inside can be a odd experience for an outsider in Caldas da Rainha. The Portuguese town has been known for decades for its Erotic Pottery, especially its genital and satirical subjects. But there are few artisans working these days and it seems the death-knell has sounded for this well-humoured craft. |

Europe's Cultural Ambassadors |
|
To finish this month's stories in classic style, Mário Proença show us that beyond an orchestra’s concert, life is not as formal as the attire of its players. The inside view of the rehearsals, workshops, master-classes and backstage scenes says more about the joyful life of a 15 different nationalities group of the European Cultural Ambassadors - the Chamber Orchestra of Europe. |
