No, Mr. Bond. I expect to you to sign . . up.
Some people have just got it made. Whether it's money, beauty, brains, some people just have all of the luck. And, of course, luck is only a minor part. Connections is probably the most important skill to have, as it helps most of us punters to slowly work our way up the ladder.…
The world offers no shortage of fascinating, thrilling, silly, scary and sometimes confusing opportunities to behold what other members of your species are up to. We'll cut to the chase on this one, as it's quite a tale, one that could only really happen in the post-1960's movies, or for that matter, anything that…
...and here's your towel. Here's another installment in our ongoing series of stories, images and, well, anything we can find related to travel, you and James Bond. Again, you'll probably need to be of a certain age in order to really get thrilled by the world's most famous spy, but to us, the franchise…

Be one of the first to experience the largest official James Bond exhibit in the United States. Produced in collaboration…
You may not have heard of him, but there may have actually been a James Bond, of sorts.
Bond loves women, style, intrigue, action and women. And so did Richard Sorge, a German journalist and Soviet military intelligence officer who was active before and during World War II and worked undercover as a German journalist in…
This post draws parallels between the peculiar charm of cats and the music band Kraftwerk. Cats, much like appreciating Kraftwerk, require an acclimation period due to their unpredictable nature. The post highlights the affectionate, low-maintenance, entertaining qualities of cats, and their associated health benefits. It mentions Catfe in Vancouver, a café that aids in cat…
Do we ever run out of things to do in Europe? No, not likely. Even when you have haunted the same tourist traps over and over again, you'll walk around the corner and a new and delightful activity will jump out into your path. And so many of these things to do…
We always like to keep you updated on stuff. And some of the stuff may not always seem to relate to travel. But, rest assured, our aim is true. You see, sometimes - most times actually - there is a veritable bee-hive of activity happening to allow you to book your trip…
By Patricia Filipovic, Senior writer So, you're going on an international vacation! You've figured out your budget and picked a place that should fall within said budget. Planned the itinerary and set a date. What else needs doing? What can you do beforehand to prepare?My travel mantra: Prepare for the unexpected. But mitigate wherever…
It always seems like "what goes around, comes around." The new new. The latest and greatest are not really the latest. They've been around the block before. Been there, done that.
But, sometimes that's not a bad thing, especially if the old new is new old, if you know what we mean.
In this case, our subject…
We don't know about you, but we started crying like babies when we saw James Bond's Aston Martin DB5 being trashed in No Time to Die. They don't make them like that anymore.. That's like adding glitter to the Mona Lisa.
But, like little childen, we were soon distracted by the mesmerising, almost, surreal beauty of…
Here's another article for those who have seen it before and have done it before.

Well,as you…
Just look at that. Landscapes don’t get more dramatic than the towering rock formations of Guilin, southern China’s most astonishing natural phenomena. And in the shadows of those giant alien mountains you’ll find something much smaller but almost as dazzling – a hotel. And not just any old hotel: a true design marvel loaded with…
OK, so you're rich, bored, ambitious and looking for the latest thing to get your pulse racing, as well as impressing your friends. Doctor, who doesn't want to be a spy? Secretly, all of us, no matter which race, creed or sex. And most of us would want to be James Bond, we assume. Well,…
At its heart, Russia is a fabulous place. With so much history, expansive terrain and the sheer diversity of its population, its lure as a place to visit is often obscured by politics and other kinds of maneuvering. When we talk about history, we must remember that the Soviet era is now history, too. And,…
For decades, Berlin has been one of the hippest places in Europe - and likely the same - in the rest of the world. A real alternative the norm. As Germany's capital, and a global city of politics, media, culture and science, Berlin is home to some of the world's most fascinating historic attractions, culturally…
