Chelsea pensioners .
NEW BOY OF THE PENSIONERS
The Royal Hospital Chelsea, founded by King Charles II in 1862 “as a retreat for veterans of the regular army who had become unfit for duty, either after 20 years’ service or as a result of wounds”. Although there are no barracks, a certain amount of kindly discipline is maintained – a fact which these old soldiers actually appreciate. At present there are 367 Chelsea Pensioners, presided over by General Sir Cameron Nicholson, and new recruits give up their outside pension on entering the Hospital. In return he is provided with his board and accommodation, clothing, a pint of beer daily or tobacco in lieu. They purchase the summer red uniform for £15 and are expected to perform a few light duties, but the majority of the time is their own. The Hospital has much to offer with companionship high on the list. For the remainder of their days the old soldier has a place of comfort and friends with whom he can swap stories of campaigns. What more could a veteran ask for?

Kosovo Ten Years After the War
Windows with plastic coverings in Loxha, Kosovo, 1999. The winters are cold here but many cannot afford glass panes. The village of Loxha once had 800 inhabitants, who had resisted two earlier attacks. One morning in August 1988 the Serbs struck for the third time with attack jets and helicopters, with bombs falling from the sky and 460 grenades exploding all around. This flourishing little village was soon completely destroyed. Many fell victim to the violence, while others fled to Albania and Macedonia. When the war finally ended in June 1999, refugees returned to find a heap of ruins. An elderly woman walked around in the grass on her own back yard, making sure there were no booby traps left, "it was better I died rather than any of my children", she said. The Red Cross has built 275 new houses. Gradually life is getting back to normal, and Loxha is once again becoming a place for people to settle down in. **Sweden Out**

MAYAN MYSTICISM IN CHIAPAS
Visitors to the Mexican state of Chiapas are guaranteed a trip drenched in Mayan mysticism, as well as unfettered access to lovely hotels, colonial towns and indigenous cultures.
The Pacific Coast state also benefits from an abundance of lush green fields, forests and jungles, fresh air, unique flora and fauna and rare species.
Many ethnic groups live in Chiapas and each has kept their traditions, languages and folklore alive. Their economy is based on cultivation - corn, beans, squash, potatoes, vegetables, pears, tomatoes and other plants - and raising animals such as pigs and poultry. And the colourful costumes of each group are just as varied as the countryside that surrounds them.
Due to this ethnic tradition Chiapas is also famous for its handcrafts. The Tojolabals make various articles in wood and clay; the Lacandons produce reed flutes, hammocks, nets, leather bags, polished and decorated gourds, clay dolls and necklaces of seeds; while the Zoques are masters at weaving baskets and making toys.
Surrounded by dozens of traditional Tzotzil and Tzeltal villages, the city of San Cristobal de Las Casas is at the heart of one of the most deeply rooted indigenous areas in Mexico. Set in a gorgeous highland valley, the colonial city has been a popular travelers' destination for decades. This makes it both an excellent base for local and regional exploration and a place where ancient customs coexist with modern luxuries....
