Let's get right to the point, here. Why stay in an unoriginal, boring cardboard box when you travel? You don't go to Paris to see the Champs-Elysees . . . again . . do you? When you're surrounded by luxurious 16th mini-palaces that you can actually afford, why would you stay in…

It feels good to do good. Volunteer.
When something secret shows up in the most public of places. It's no news that, many many years ago, Korea was divided into two; South Korea and North Korea. (If your history of this period is sketchy, the country was split apart primarily as a result of the end of World War II and…
Why should the rich be the only ones who get in on all of the good things in life? Well, yes, of course, they're rich. But why does that matter? Yes, you're right, I understand that their riches often pay for the luxuries that us Hoi polloi have. Fine, so they…
No, it's not the name of some new trendy Pale Ale. Still, we wish we could have been around when the first nations of Canada named this place. We would love to have seen the discourse and decision-making. We wonder who finally triumphed in the name game. Was it rock, paper,…
Emirates Bus Line? Even slumming it is luxurious. Where do I sign?
Re: animation. Road trip!

Moulay-Idriss-Zerhoun is Moroccan me happy
Not your typical Wild Men of Borneo.

Sorry if we seem a bit repetitious and over-excited when it comes to rail travel. We have loads of articles (see here) about why rail is the way to go and why all travelers should use it when they can. The earth is on fire and now is the time to act to…
We rail on and on again (get it?) about rail. It is the past, present and future of travel. Especially the future. As automobiles continue to clog up the roads, polluting all the while, carrying - maybe - five persons in the vehicle, it becomes more and more apparent that this is…
This is the road less traveled. Slow down and visit forgotten places.
Thanks to the Electric Interwebs, we modern species of humans are able to go back in time to either remember, or to learn anew. Not surprisingly, one of the most memorable places on earth is Los Angeles, and it has been for decades. As busy and as thriving as it is, we discovered…
As if Machu Pichu isn't thrilling enough, the clever Peruvian people have found a way to make your stay there even stickier and more fun. (We'll come to that in a moment.) Above and beyond that most desired location, Peru has so many add-ons or alternatives that will absolutely take your breath away, especially when…
