Drones in Europe (EU/EAA drone classes)

There are many natural hot springs around the world. Especially in countries like Japan, Iceland and New Zealand. Here I will document my favorites.

After using NordVPN for years, but not really being satisfied, I did some research to find better alternatives. Here's a little (unbiased, I don't have any affiliation with any provider or companion) collection of resources on accessing the free internet in heavily censoring states like China.

PLBs are personal devices that can be used to receiving emergency help when in distress out in the wilderness or out at sea. They are being sold by various companies at a steep price, compared to the cost of the components they use. They usually have a non-rechargeable battery that typically lasts for 10 years, but the PLB manufacturers usually recommend changing them after 5-6 years. Once expired, the battery has to be replaced, typically only by the same company that sold the device - at a price almost as high as the purchase price of the PLB. And because the battery pack is often built in a proprietary way, it's hard to find these batteries for sale anywhere in order to replace them ourselves.
