Venice for under £100 a night! How to visit the floating city on the cheap

You’re right. Venice isn’t cheap. A ride on a gondola will probably cost more than your flights.

But this ancient city, crammed on to a sinking island off the north-east corner of Italy, is one of the true wonders of the world. Every few paces, you’ll stagger back, amazed, at some new beauty spot. Your Instagram feed will runneth over.

And, if you’re careful, you can do it without breaking the bank.

Floating city: A map showing the tourist hotspots in Venice

Where to stay

Hotel San Samuele

The location of this affordable, intimate hotel in the San Marco district could hardly be better. Just a short walk from the Accademia bridge, Hotel San Samuele is simple — there’s no restaurant, for example — but its rooms are clean and elegantly furnished, and Judith, the owner, is dangerously charming. Highly recommended. Doubles from £78 (hotelsansamuele.com).

Palazzo Contarini della Porta di Ferro

This grand palazzo in the quiet Castello district belonged to one of the city’s most influential families. It’s cheaper than most comparable places, and if you call the personable manager, Antonio, he may be able to cut you a deal. Then you can pretend you’re a 17th-century duke as you stalk through the fragrant walled garden and echoing hallways. Doubles from £95 (palazzocontarini.com).

Residenza degli Angeli

Enjoy some faded splendour at this atmospheric B&B in the heart of the San Polo district, near the Rialto Bridge. The rooms are simple but nicely decorated. Breakfast is basic (a croissant and coffee) but does the job. The price is remarkable considering the location. Doubles from £44 (039 041 275 9546).

Locanda Gaffaro

Whether you arrive by train or bus, Locanda Gaffaro is conveniently located on the edge of the Dorsoduro district. The rooms are on the small side, but tastefully appointed. The same could be said of the breakfast. Good value, though, all told. Doubles from £75 (gaffaro.com).

Where to eat

Nevodi

The padrone, Silvio, is expansive, but his restaurant is not expensive: gnocchi with red mullet and artichokes is £13, coffee is £1.75. Nevodi is a social hub in the Castello district so popular with locals you’ll probably need a reservation in the evening. Address: Via Giuseppe Garibaldi (039 041 241 1136).

Osteria Ai Do Archi

Situated next to Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo, this simple osteria will charge you £9 for a plate of spaghetti carbonara and £4.50 for a glass of Merlot. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious. It hits the spot. Address: Barbaria de le Tole (039 041 241 1306).

Corner Pub

Simpler still, this is where the cool interns from the Guggenheim Museum go at lunchtime. The service is surly, but it’s all terribly authentic. A no-frills Italian caff with panini and pasta and beer on tap, all for a song. Address: Calle della Chiesa (039 349 457 6739).

Serene: A gondola station outside the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute

Muro San Stae

A little pricier than the others, this gem of a restaurant in the back streets of San Polo is worth seeking out for its fantastic pizzas, far superior to those served in the restaurants around San Marco — half of which (whisper it) are frozen. Owner Giacomo is passionate about wine, so make sure you pore over his list. Address: Santa Croce (039 041 524 1628).

What to see and do

Creep into the crypt

The church of San Zaccaria houses (probably) the remains of the father of John the Baptist, and (definitely) a fantastic Bellini altarpiece. For £1.30 you can explore the side chapels, admire a dramatic painting of the crucifixion by Van Dyck and descend into the (usually flooded) crypt. Take care on the slippery marble steps. Campo S. Zaccaria.

See the big guns

You aren’t allowed to enter the imposing Arsenale — which is still used by the Italian Navy — but for £9 at the nearby Naval History Museum you can learn how Venezia ruled the waves. The place has curvaceous swords, splendid blunderbusses and cannons so large you’d have thought they would sink a ship simply by being brought aboard. Riva S. Biasio (039 041 244 1399).

Get on the water

A half-hour gondola ride costs £70 — but the price is the same regardless of the number of passengers. Save money by teaming up with others in the queue. Extra tip: go to Campo Santa Maria Formosa and ask to see the ‘hidden canals’. That way you’ll avoid the Venetian equivalent of heavy traffic.

There’s nothing better to do in Venice than just wander the streets. Pictured are tourists shops selling souvenirs on Ponte di Rialto

Get arty

For £13, there’s much to admire at the Guggenheim. Modernist masterpieces include Max Ernst’s resplendent The Robing Of The Bride and Jackson Pollock’s superb Alchemy. Almost as intriguing are the enthusiastic interns, who serve as attendants, and your extravagant fellow punters. Dorsoduro (guggenheim-venice.it).

Go window shopping

A stone’s throw from the crush of the Rialto Bridge you’ll find a shopper’s paradise in the lofty department store T Fondaco dei Tedeschi. Having browsed your fill, take the lift to the top floor where free cultural events are hosted — and from the roof you can enjoy one of the best views in Venice. Rialto Bridge (039 041 314 2000).

Tour hidden places

There is nothing better to do in Venice than simply walk the streets. Wander into random churches. Get lost. The locals call this un giro delle sconde (a tour of the hidden places) — or, if you take on some light alcoholic refreshment, a bar crawl.

How to get there

Easyjet has return flights from London Gatwick from £40 (easyjet.com).

Coca-Cola is a huge part of Mexican life. Here's the story of how a delivery driver climbed up through the company's ranks, becoming president of Coca-Cola Mexico and eventually, president of the whole country, bringing Coca-Cola to popularity along the way.

The average Mexican drinks more than 700 cups of Coca-Cola a year — nearly double what Americans drink.

Coca-Cola rose to popularity in Mexico starting in the 1960s with the help of Vicente Fox, the former president of Mexico, who started his career driving around, making deliveries for the company.

The soda has become an integral part of Mexican life, even intersecting with politics and religion in certain regions.

In Business Insider's new podcast "Household Name," Fox explains how he spent his early days working his way up the ranks of Coca-Cola. To hear the full story, subscribe to the podcast for free here.

The average Mexican drinks more than 700 cups of Coca-Cola a year — nearly double what Americans drink.

But Coca-Cola wasn't always such a huge part of Mexican culture. It grew slowly in popularity as one of its delivery workers — Vicente Fox — rose up the ranks to become president of Coca-Cola Mexico and eventually, president of the whole country.

Coca-Cola had been in Mexico for decades before it started booming in popularity. In the early 1970s, an international ad campaign for the drink swept across Mexico. Around the same time, Coca-Cola sponsored the Mexico City Olympics and the World Cup.

Coke was so popular that in 1970, then-President Luis Echeverría tried to get the recipe and nationalize it. Though his attempt was unsuccessful, it was a testament to how closely intertwined Coca-Cola and Mexican politics had become.

Coke is now a big part of Mexican life, not just politics. Here's how it became so popular:

The story begins in the 1960s, long before Vicente Fox became the president of Mexico. Back then, Fox was working for Coca-Cola as a salesman, delivering Coke to local businesses. Fox said he would incentivize local businesses to become exclusive to Coca-Cola, rather than Pepsi.

In 1971, an iconic Coca-Cola ad campaign caught on in Mexico. Around the same time, Coca-Cola sponsored the Mexico City Olympics and, later, the World Cup. Coca-Cola marketing was everywhere in Mexico.

After 10 years, the market share was on the side of Coca-Cola. So Fox got promoted.

Fox was angry about how anti-big-business the government was. But moving through the ranks of Coca-Cola meant dealing with politics.

One day, Fox said he was called into the presidential house. Then-President Luis Echeverría wanted the Coke recipe and to nationalize Coca-Cola and its bottlers.

To distract the president from his demand for the Coke formula, Fox said he and his team decided to show off the brand-new Coca-Cola shrimp farm. They were able to successfully distract Echeverría from trying to get the formula.

Not long after that, Fox became president of Coca-Cola Mexico. But he wasn't satisfied in the position. In 1979, he returned to his family farm.

Several decades later, he decided to work for the public instead. In 2000, he won the Mexican presidency.

Fox said that some of his first donations while running his campaign came from Coca-Cola. Even though Fox's presidency disappointed many Mexicans, Coca-Cola's business boomed while he was in office.

Part of why Coke was growing so explosively in Mexico around the time of Fox's presidency is because of the North American Free Trade Agreement. Mexico joined NAFTA in 1994, and it became way cheaper to buy Coca-Cola in Mexico.

It also became more accessible.

In some parts of Mexico, it was cheaper and easier to find Coca-Cola than clean drinking water. Many malnourished communities needed the calories, so they began drinking more Coke.

There are some places where it's used in religious ceremonies, like at the "Coca-Cola Church" in the state of Chiapas. It's really the St. John's Church, but that's not what most people call it. A few decades ago, the religious leaders replaced a traditional alcohol with Coke. They use it for a variety of things like decoration and healing, and they drink it in ceremonies.

But there was a downside to Coke's sudden spike in popularity — the diabetes rate doubled in Mexico between 2000 and 2007.

Coca-Cola provided the following statement to Business Insider:

The Coca-Cola Company and our bottling partners have long believed that we must conduct our business sustainably and grow responsibly by striving to do business the right way. As a total beverage company, we are working to provide people around the world with more of the drinks they want. We agree that people shouldn't eat or drink too much sugar and we're taking specific, meaningful actions to help people drink less sugar from our beverages. This starts with our support of the World Health Organization's guideline that people limit their daily calorie intake from added sugar to no more than 10 percent of their total calorie intake. It extends to the actions we are taking to provide smaller, more convenient package sizes; to introduce new reduced and no-sugar drinks; and to reduce sugar in existing drinks around the world.

We also are focused on lessening our environmental impact per liter of product we produce. Our environmental priorities and goals center on water, packaging, climate and agriculture. Our programs in these areas drive progressive, and sometimes industry-leading goals and we have institutionalized an approach to advance our business toward these goals around the world. With the help of independent third parties, and using generally accepted scientific methods, we estimated that we exceeded our initial goal to replenish all the water we use in our beverages and their production worldwide in 2015 and we continue to strive toward that goal year over year. For more information please review our sustainability report: https://www.coca-colacompany.com/sustainability.

Mexicans drink, on average, more than 700 cups of Coke a year — nearly double what we drink in the US.

Boku no Hero Academia TCG - Review of Booster Set 1

Another review! And this time we’ll be covering the first booster set of the Boku no Hero Academia TCG. This set has quite a few cards to offer, and came out at the same time as the first two starter decks of the game. This set contains a total of 65 cards, and I dunno about you guys, but having 65 images in one post seems a little overkill to me. What I’ll be doing instead is link you to the official card gallery, where you can see all the cards yourself. You can find the cards for this set at http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/heroaca_tcg/card/item_ha01.html

On to the review!

HA-01-001 Midoriya Izuku (U)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

BATTLE PHASE: [6 Doryoku] All characters in your battle area get +5 Power and +1 Critical.

Judgement: Overkill! This ability is really expensive, but it has a few good things going for it. First is the Battle Phase tag, meaning it can be used offensively and defensively. Second, it affects the other character as well, giving you a massive boost in damage potential for the turn. I wouldn’t bet on being able to use this effect continuously, but it has the potential to be a dangerous finisher. The high cost does lower my rating though. 4/5

HA-01-002 Midoriya Izuku (S)

[Student – Male – Gym Clothes]

ATTACK: [Place the top card of your deck in your damage area] This character gets +6 Power and +1 Critical.

Judgement: Before the release of the awakening mechanic in Set 3, I would’ve given this card a really bad score. But now that there’s an incentive for reaching a damage threshold of 4, you can use this Deku to accelerate yourself to that point and then dominate with strong awakened characters. 3/5

HA-01-005 Uraraka Ochako (U)

[Student – Female – Hero Suit]

TAG ATTACK: [2 Doryoku] When you tag attack with a “student”, place one of your opponent’s battle area characters on top of their deck and this character gets +1 Critical.

Judgement: This is a really powerful effect, guaranteeing you to send the chosen character to the trash, as long as your attack goes through. The tag attack requirement means you’ll have an absolute minimum of 7 Power, but don’t bother using her with any character that has less than 5 base. With her own base of 4 she’s quite frail though. 3/5

HA-01-006 Uraraka Ochako (S)

[Student – Female – Gym Clothes]

ATTACK: Return 1 opponent’s battle area character with 6 or less Power to the hand.

Judgement: This effect isn’t too bad, and it costing absolutely nothing makes it better. Like many other cards, though, the stats make this card a less than optimal choice, and sending cards back to the hand doesn’t actually get rid of them. 2/5

HA-01-009 Bakugou Katsuki (U)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

BATTLE PHASE: [Trash 1 “Bakugou Katsuki” from your hand] This character gets +5 Power and +1 Critical.

Judgement: A very simple enhancement effect that can be used during either player’s turn. In exchange for being able to directly trash an opponent, this Bakugou just becomes stronger and deadlier. I personally prefer the direct removal from the start deck, but this one’s not too bad, either. 3/5

HA-01-011 Bakugou Katsuki (R)

[Student – Male]

STANDBY PHASE: [3 Doryoku] Trash an opponent’s battle area character.

Judgement: In case you wanted to play some removal, but didn’t want to build a deck around Bakugou, this version of him can be put into other decks as well. He works surprisingly well with the Doryoku-intense decks, like the Deku ones, which is kinda funny. That said though, he isn’t too great due to his lower Power. 3/5

HA-01-013 Iida Tenya (U)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

ATTACK: [Trash the top 5 cards of your deck] If there was an extra card among those cards, this character gets +3 Power and readies after this battle.

Judgement: This bad boy’s ability is very powerful, but I can’t help but feel that the cost might be a little too high. If it was 3 cards I’d give him +2 points, but unfortunately, in his current state, he’s just too expensive. 2/5

HA-01-014 Iida Tenya (S)

[Student – Male – Gym Clothes]

EFFECT: If this character is the only “student” character in your battle area, draw 1 card.

Judgement: Drawing cards is always nice, but with those stats this card isn’t really worth the slot in your deck. 1/5

HA-01-015 Iida Tenya (R)

[Student – Male]

EFFECT: [2 Doryoku] Trash an opponent’s battle area character with 5 or less Power.

Judgement: A slightly cheaper and less powerful version of the Bakugou removal effect, but with pretty bad stats to back him up, especially considering the effect is one time use only. Still, it’s removal, and removal is good. 2/5

HA-01-017 Todoroki Shouto (S)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

BATTLE PHASE: [5 Doryoku] Return all opponent’s battle area characters to the hand.

Judgement: OH BOY! This is a very powerful card. Not only does he have a base Power of 6, but his ability is able to swing the game back in your favor! Whether you use him offensively or defensively, he’s sure to turn the tides of battle. The cost is fairly high, but that’s to be expected for such a heavy impact. 5/5

HA-01-018 Todoroki Shouto (N)

[Student – Male – Uniform]

SINGLE ATTACK: This character gets +3 Power.

Judgement: I don’t have much to say about this card, positive or negative. He’s a decent, efficient attacker. 3/5

HA-01-020 Asui Tsuyu (S)

[Student – Female – Hero Suit]

TAG ATTACK: When you tag attack with a “student”, return one “student” character from your trash to your hand.

Judgement: With 5 Power, she’s an excellent tag attack partner, and that ability helps you get back the pieces you need to use on the next turn, or to defend with. It’s a great card. 4/5

HA-01-022 Asui Tsuyu (N)

>I already went over her in the review of the first starter decks. She’s great.

HA-01-023 Aoyama Yuuga (S)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

BATTLE PHASE: [Trash 1 “Aoyama Yuuga” from your hand] Draw 1 card, this character gets +3 Power.

Judgement: Similar to Bakugou who wants to discard himself, but instead of raw strength or destruction, pretty sparkly boy lets you refill your hand, which is nice. Think of him as trading an unwanted Aoyama for something that’s probably gonna be better anyway. The only thing holding him back is other Aoyamas being mediocre at best. 3/5

HA-01-025 Aoyama Yuuga (N)

>He’s in the starter decks, so go check that review for my opinion (hint: he’s eh).

HA-01-026 Kirishima Eijirou (S)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

STANDBY PHASE: [3 Doryoku] Draw 2 cards, then trash 1 card from your hand.

Judgement: Kirishima bias aside, this card is neither good nor bad. Drawing is really nice, having to discard a card is fair, but the cost might be just a bit too high for my tastes. Still alright, though, so he gets a pass. 3/5

HA-01-028 Kirishima Eijirou (N)

>The same as in the starter deck, he’s pretty neat.

HA-01-029 Mineta Minoru (S)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

BATTLE PHASE: [Trash 1 “Mineta Minoru” from your hand] All opponent’s battle area characters get -3 Power.

Judgement: If the other Minetas were better, this card’s rating would’ve had the chance to be perfect. But most of them, just as with Aoyama, are mediocre. 3/5

HA-01-030 Mineta Minoru (R)

[Student – Male – Uniform]

BATTLE PHASE: When a “female” character supports this character, this character gets +4 Power.

Judgement: Mineta harem deck, here we come! Please don’t take that suggestion seriously. While he can reach pretty high numbers with the support of one of the girls, do you really want to do that when other characters can reach the same numbers while having useful abilities? And in the case of you not having any females to support him with, he’s incredibly weak. 2/5

HA-01-032 Kaminari Denki (S)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

EFFECT: [Trash 1 other character in your battle area and 1 card in your hand] Trash 1 opponent’s battle area character.

Judgement: Bad card, way too expensive, and a big waste of cool artwork. 1/5

HA-01-033 Kaminari Denki (R)

[Student – Male – Gym Clothes]

TAG ATTACK: This character gets +2 Power and +1 Critical.

Judgement: Aside from the fact that I want the artworks of this card and the previous one to switch, I have 0 complaints here. He’s one of the best tag attack partners available. 5/5

HA-01-035 Shouji Mezou (R)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

YOUR TURN | OPPONENT’S TURN: This character is unaffected by your opponent’s cards’ abilities.

Judgement: Immuno to removal and having his Power reduced, this guy is a solid addition to many decks that have the space available to them. The lack of anything that directly influence with the state of the game takes away a point, though. 4/5

HA-01-037 Tokoyami Fumikage (R)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

EFFECT: If there are 1 or fewer characters in your opponent’s battle area, draw 1 card.

Judgement: Unfortunately he relies on others to fulfill the conditions of his ability, which limits the kinds of decks you can put him in. 2/5

HA-01-039 Yaoyorozu Momo (R)

[Student – Female – Hero Suit]

STANDBY PHASE: [3 Doryoku] Return 1 “student” character from your trash to your hand.

Judgement: While I do like Momo quite a bit, the cost and Standby Phase tag of her ability make her an, in my opinion, objectively worse Tsuyu. But since the ability is still useful, Momo gets a pass. 3/5

HA-01-040 Yaoyorozu Momo (N)

[Student – Female – Uniform]

SUPPORT: If there is a “student” character in your battle area, add the top 3 cards of your deck to your Doryoku gauge.

Judgement: A really nice addition to decks that rely on having a steady flow of Doryoku available, but practically worthless in anything else. 2/5

HA-01-042 Jirou Kyouka (N)

>Another card from the starter decks, and my opinion remains the same.

HA-01-043 Ojiro Mashirao (R)

[Student – Male – Hero Suit]

STANDBY PHASE: [Trash the top 5 cards of your deck] Return 1 opponent’s battle area character to the hand.

Judgement: No. 1/5

HA-01-045 Ashido Mina (R)

[Student – Female – Hero Suit]

TAG ATTACK: When this character tag attacks with a “student”, look at the top card of your opponent’s deck. Return it to the top of your opponent’s deck or trash it.

Judgement: This is a deceptively good card. It’s your choice where that card ends up – if it’s a character, put it back on top of the deck, and if it’s an extra, into the trash it goes! Such a versatile effect deserves a good score. 4/5

HA-01-051 All Might (U)

[Hero – Male]

ATTACK: [Trash 1 card from your hand] Trash all opponent’s battle area characters.

Judgement: What a devastating blow! Attacking with the big man himself is sure to leave a sour aftertaste in your opponent’s mouth. 4/5

HA-01-052 All Might (S)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

ATTACK: [2 Doryoku] This card gets +1 Critical.

Judgement: While not as devastating as the previous version, this is still a strong card. 3/5

HA-01-054 All Might (N)

[Hero – Male]

EFFECT: Add the top card of your deck to your Doryoku gauge.

Judgement: Perfectly viable in a Doryoku-heavy deck, but near useless in others. 2/5

HA-01-055 Aizawa Shouta (S)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

ATTACK: Place 1 opponent’s battle character with 5 or less Power in their Doryoku gauge.

Judgement: Now this right here is the most powerful form of removal available in this game. If your opponent’s cards don’t utilize the Doryoku gauge to pay for their abilities, you basically banished a character into the abyss, and even if they do use it, they’ll have to go the extra mile to get that card back. The Power limitation does take away a point, though. 4/5

HA-01-056 Aizawa Shouta (N)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

EFFECT: Look at the top 3 cards of your deck and return them to the top in any order.

Judgement: This card offers a great deal of flexibility, either to prepare for a damage check during the opponent’s turn, or to let you draw whatever you need most. 4/5

HA-01-057 Present Mic (R)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

EFFECT: Draw 2 cards, then trash 1 card from your hand.

Judgement: It’s just a nice draw effect, and we like those a lot. 4/5

HA-01-058 Shinrin Kamui (N)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

ATTACK: When this character battles, your opponent can’t Support from their hand.

Judgement: His ability all but guarantees a successful attack. 3/5

HA-01-059 Backdraft (N)

[Hero – Male – Hero Suit]

EFFECT: [2 Doryoku] Draw 1 card.

Jugement: Slightly underwhelming, I’d say. 2/5

HA-01-060 Mt. Lady (N)

[Hero – Female – Hero Suit]

ATTACK: This card gets 10 Power.

Judgement: Well that’s certainly one way to get a successful hit in. There’s actually just one single card in this game that can block 20 Power, so she certainly has her uses. 4/5

And there you have it, folks! The first booster set of this game adds a lot of cards to improve your deck with, and it’s only the beginning. Several of these cards, especially extras, are still viable nowadays, so if you feel like picking up a couple of card, why not get a few packs of this set while you’re at it? Now, GO BEYOND! PLUS ULTRA!

GBP: 'Bumping Along The Bottom'; What's The Trade? - SocGen

Societe Generale Cross Asset Strategy Research argues that GBP direction and target into 2018 can summed up as ‘bumping along the bottom’ .

"We see little chance of positive economic surprises but struggle to see how sterling can get even cheaper than it is. GBP/USD will probably stay in a range, while EUR/GBP rises as a function of euro strength," SocGeb argues.

Hence, we favour selling the pound against the euro, or better still, the SEK and NOK," SocGen advises.

Wisconsin is about to shell out as much as $3 billion for the privilege of luring Foxconn Technology Group. At $519 per citizen, it would have been cheaper to buy an iPhone for every man, woman and child in the midwestern state. Let's be clear: The big winner isn't the taxpayer. It's Foxconn and its billionaire chairman Terry Gou. As I predicted several times, Foxconn would only come to the U.S. if and when his demands were met. Meet them is exactly what Wisconsin did, with an offering of tax credits, training grants and infrastructure improvements. In return, Foxconn said it will invest $10 billion and create 3,000 jobs. via Snapzu : Places, Culture & Travel

"I'm 22 years old and I must have killed 30 people. The same thing that you were given badges for over in Iraq, would have you considered a serial killer over here. That's a very weird thought to have running around in your head when it's dark, going to sleep or late at night." There is no place for doubt, sadness and fear in the American army. Still, many soldiers struggle with these feelings. Beer is Cheaper than Therapy portrays what goes on behind the facade of heroism and the 'John Wayne mentality'. via Snapzu : Health & Body

Strategy: The surprising story of how the former president of Mexico helped make Coca-Cola such a huge part of Mexican life that it's used in religious ceremonies and as medicine
