I’m always looking for time wasters for when I’m eating my lunch—websites that I can go to that offer some kind of fun interlude while I kick back on my lunch break. Two I’ve recently found are https://explore.org/ and https://drivenlisten.com/.
These websites are free and don’t require you to do much clicking, so you can have mostly a hands-free experience. Check them out on your next lunch break, or when you have some time to kill.
Explore.org
This website has a bunch of live animal cams from around the world that you can sit back and view at your leisure. The animals you can view are from a range of wildlife sanctuaries and animal rescues. I saw bears hunting salmon in Alaska, Osprey in Montana, wildebeest at a waterhole in Africa. The best part about it is that watching animals is so relaxing you’ll forget you were even trying to waste time.

This website allows you to virtually drive or walk around cities from around the world while listening to radio stations from that city. The clarity in the video is very good and the driving is very realistic. All you have to do is click the start button, choose a city and enjoy the ride!
