Could you imagine travelling around the world living rent and bill free? Well a Slovakian design firm has come up with a portable 'pod' that runs entirely on solar and wind energy, allowing its residents to both literally and figuratively, live off the grid.

The egg-shaped Ecocapsules, designed by Slovakian design firm

Nice Architects, can house up to two people for a year off the grid. This includes the luxuries of a warm bed, running water, and hot food.
