Going through passport control when traveling can be one of the most frustrating and painful events - we're sure you agree. But, it has to be done, doesn't it. And a lot of us do it. According to Statista.com, The number of international tourist arrivals worldwide dropped sharply in 2020 over the…
Surely this has crossed your mind at one time or another. Let go of your humdrum day-job for a bit. Fly away and do nothing but simply have fun. Take the kids if you have them. If not, simply act like one. And we have the place for you. …
Being the sharing, inclusive and fun site that we fashion ourselves to be, we always look for new and interesting locales for our readers to research and explore. It's a big planet, we only have so much time on it and so, we should use our time wisely. That's why we hand-select places…
Our wonderful planet has no end of fabulous things to do, no matter where we are, or how old we are. And there are few things that create genuine pent-up excitement more than amusement parks. The prospect of visiting will always thrill the kids - and maybe even some parents (wallet considerations…
Oh, yeah? Let's see what you're really made of. How many laps do you think you can do in a pool that is 1,013 meters (3,324 ft) in length with a total area of 8 hectares (19.77 acres)? Yes, we thought so, too. Sure, you might be able to do a…
Here's another post featuring a place where anyone can go, but it will take some effort. Still, in the case of the Port Couvreux islands, you will likely be the only one of your friends with this extreme location. We're willing to bet that this is news for you. Bragging rights. Known…
Never ones to shy away from big tasks, China is also a design powerhouse in so many ways. Their appetite and capacity for construction must surely be at or near the top of the world's countries and they bedazzle us with their ingenuity and sheer pizazz. But not all of China's works are offices,…
The rich are an interesting bunch. Some are so completely invisible, you don't even know they exist. Some are in your face almost every day: you know who we're talking about. And, lately, with social media, you can't get away from them. All you can do is marvel at their…
We're always on the lookout for the "non-traditional." While our travel radar is usually occupied by the most popular, traditional locations, settings and activities (we're talking about you, Venice) we also long for the unusual, the hidden gem, the "find" that makes our mind tingle and pushes us to go and explore. We…
Don't worry, it's not as horrible as it sounds, but it is, indeed a plane wreck. An history DC3 to be accurate. But, it's not horrific. No-one perished - all the passengers on board survived the crash. But, it was a close call. And, despite it being a US Navy…
Iceland always has a pure, if mysterious allure for anyone who hasn't been. Cold and misty, yet with boiling volcanoes that keep the residents warm and the visitors coming. A Nordic nation, Iceland is defined by its dramatic landscape with beautiful mountains, hot springs and more. Massive glaciers are protected in Vatnajökull and Snæfellsjökull…
For one reason or another, when many people think of a European holiday, Budapest sometimes is overlooked as a destination. For those of us who have been fortunate enough to have visited that diverse, huge and historic city, we will never forget it. It acts as a bridge between the "East" and the…
Shush.... show a little respect. This post is for you adventurers who constantly want to do something out of the ordinary. Rather than spend your days on a beach or in a huge city, going from one museum to another, you want to look for something that not many others have seen.…
We love cars, especially classic, luxury and exotic. We've had a bunch of them over the years, but we also realise that they have an impact on our planet, so we take the trains as much - if not more - than we do cars. But that doesn't reduce our love of beautiful…
We love football. And by that we mean the international game where you use your foot and your head to make the goals. We were glued to the television watching the recent World Cup 2022 matches, sometimes getting up at inhuman times of the day to catch the action. We won't divulge…
This past week, we wrote a post about Cuba opening up again soon. For many countries, this is not necessarily big news, but for those living in the USA it is, as Cuba has been a banished country for so many decades that it's sad. It's a fabulous country with so much to…
Unfortunately, it's not a cabaret show, but it may leave you dancing in your seats. (Vegetarians, look away now.) Asia is home to some of the widest selection of foods and cuisines in in the world. They take their food seriously, and they treasure every bite. So, when you first set foot…
Yawn. Maybe you've already been around the world and have seen it before and done it before. Or perhaps your partner loves to hang-glide through enemy airspace on your holidays. Or, you might just want a bit of relaxation and "you time." Perhaps you just need a little time away (I…
Well, let us once again, remind you of why living in this time in space is not bad at all. Technology brings us all together and not only can we explore our planet, but we can also find ways of saving money to do it. In this case, how does cheap flights with…
