Saudi Arabia’s Dream of the Desert
Running north from the capital city of Riyadh to Al Qurayyat, on the border of Jordan the Dream of the Desert, will be the Kindgom’s first luxury train. Covering 770 miles, the train will carry just 80 passengers in 40 cabins through the beautifully rugged terrain and UNESCO World Heritage sites on the route. Production begins in early 2025 in Italy and operators promise to have the train in operation by the end of the year.
Taylor Swift Expert
The official title of the position at the famed London museum of art, design and performance reads, “Superfan Advisor—Taylor Swift”. The BBC reported that the Victoria and Albert Museum is on the hunt for Swifties who can advise on “fan culture and memorabilia that Swift’s fans collect and create with special interest in the Eras Tour signage and friendship bracelets that attendees have been swapping.” Museum Director, Dr. Tristram Hunt says they’re hoping to appoint their Swift Advisor before the European leg of her tour later this year.

Wild boar becomes household pet
A Belgian husband and wife have adopted a wild boar and taken to him so much that he is living inside their home. Gregory Guiot discovered the boar they call Oscar as a small piglet during a hunting trip with his dogs and decided to take him in to care for temporarily. More than a year and 80-kilogram later Oscar is toilet trained and quite at home. He’s even got his own sofa, pillows and blanket.
