Study Centre. At Highland Heritage we have a unique setting in the mountains where time has almost stood still and the 21st century is still but a distance away.

Study Centre

Our (Truth in Awareness) study centre reflects our philosophy of tranquillity and a slower pace of life in harmony with nature. This is not a place beset with hi-tech equipment and overwhelming information. Here, you can study or read or write as people calmly did 40 years ago and more - undisturbed and in peace and quiet away from noise and chaos. The only sounds you will hear will be from the water fountains in the ponds that surround the centre, the singing of the birds, the occasional 'noise' from the monkeys - and, perhaps, a little Mozart or Chopin. From every window there are relaxing views of the surrounding forest, with more distant views to the mountain tops, and to the flower gardens with literally thousands of colourful plants - every colour of the rainbow.

The truth behind Costa Rica’s renewable energy. This month, Costa Rica’s state-run electricity company announced that the country had gone 75 days using only renewable resources for electricity. Costa Ricans are the first in the world to power their country for so long without the use of fossil fuels, and the record-breaking achievement was quickly picked up by news agencies all over the world.

Costa Rican residents have certainly benefited from the clean energy, with electricity prices set to tumble between 7% and 15% in April. But despite the world’s congratulatory backslaps for the renowned green country, its clean energy production is not likely to last at this scale, nor is it a model that would work in many other parts of the world.

People have been crawling around the cavernous mountains of Asia for centuries, but remarkably, the largest cave in the world remained hidden from discovery deep in the forests of Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park in Vietnam until 1991. As the story of the Sơn Đoòng Cave goes, “local farmer Ho Khanh was walking along a stretch of lush forest within the heart of the Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park … It was an area that he had passed many times before and he was not paying any particular attention to his surroundings when suddenly the jungle floor opened up beneath him and Mr.

Khanh only barely managed to hold on as the ground crumbled beneath him. When he was able to get his bearings, he peered into the gaping chasm that had suddenly appeared out of the thick foliage and saw that there was now a steep drop where he had stood that descended down into darkness.
