Get your motor running. Get out on the highway.
Here's another instalment of our ongoing Hey Presto parade of Webcams, worldwide. You may not be able to be there, but you can be there, if you know what we mean. Webcams provide a real-time connection to places, events, or situations that you might not be able to experience otherwise. This can create…
What’s the first thing they did with it? Took it to the Gobi Desert of course!
We've been to Cartagena, Colombia many, many times. Why, you may ask? We have family there, but - even more - it's such a wonderful place to be (as is all of Colombia.) Relaxed, hip, diverse, fun and rich in history. And the food transcends. Located on the northern coast…
Want to show off to your friends? Want to add your name to the Guinness Book of World Records? Want to spend a little spare cash? Here's an odd and humorous topic for all of you high-value air travelers. This may appear to be pure selfishness, courtesy of some Johnny Bigpants, where…
... a rail tale, as it were. We write about Cleveland, Ohio, USA every so often. Interestingly, the city seems to capture the attention of thousands of people regularly, even though it is slowly shrinking away. So, why would you want to visit Cleveland, Ohio and - in this case -…
Every day, we pour over what the internet has to offer, evaluate whether it's worthy or not, and if it is, we leave it here for you to enjoy. Some of our posts are rather simple - such as the one today - because not everyone who is on the Internet needs to…
Sometimes a place will steal your heart away. One of those is Latvia. Surprise yourself.
This could be another one of those "been there, done that" stories, where frenzied travelers (or travel bloggers) flee at full speed just to meet their self-imposed deadlines. But, seriously, that's not what travel should be about. You likely flew for ten or more hours to get there, so why rush it? …
It's sometimes a stigma if we signal that we want to be alone for a while. There is nothing wrong with that. Usually we're our best company - at least we can be honest with ourselves - maybe. Being alone provides the opportunity to connect with your thoughts, feelings, and interests…
Put the hammer down, good buddy. There’s a Smokey bear in the air.
Why do European budget carriers feel cheaper than their US equivalents?
You've undoubtedly seen the photos. You may have even been to this most famous mountain itself. You may have even taken the iconic train ride to the top, but what else do you know about the Jungfraujoch? Do you know how it operates? How does it operate in an extreme blizzard?…
We have a real find here for you in this place. Once you stay, you'll never want to go back to an everyday hotel again. The Dive Bar, Motel & Swim Club in Nashville, Tennessee. You may be too young to remember places like this. Or, perhaps you're too old to remember.…
The more things change, the more they remain the same.
If there's a vice or a trade that hurts animals, we're against it. The wanton, senseless murder for sport went on for far too long to the point of annihilating a number of species, many of them endangered to being with. But, are you heading off on a mindful safari? How…
Here's another delightful bubbling under find (for most of us.) We scour the globe every day to find little known destinations for you. It was only recently when we discovered the Perhentian Islands. A visit to the Perhentian Islands is taking a step into a rare, exotic paradise, and the perfect place to…
How to be nimble with your gimbal.
Some billionaires are solely focused on themselves. We won't necessarily point any fingers, but you'll know who they are. Lately they're getting back press for the way that they treat themselves, sometimes appearing almost like a clown or buffoon. It's truly a shame that they don't look at the bigger picture and…
