How Swedes stay warm


The Swedes are highly inventive when it comes to keeping warm. They make rather beautiful wool clothing. They sit in saunas, run outdoors, roll around in the snow naked, and then go back inside.  And they invent things like this marvelous freestanding hearth. Called the Vauni Globe, it is the world’s only globe-shaped ethanol fireplace. It can be rotated 360 degrees for optimal viewing. No cleaning or maintenance is needed either – ashes and soot belong to the past. You won't even need to build a chimney.
Just try to ignore that it looks like the back of an eyeball.
