When we look back in history, most of us seek past knowledge, or perhaps ways of living. It could be protective measures to ensure that our families are safe and sound, so that we can continue the lineage. We could be seeking higher ground and simply a better way. Let's look at some…
Aren't we lucky people, these days. Most of us that is. Money is flowing for those who have, of course, but also more and more, for those who have not, or are on the edge of having. It's been a long trip for so many, but all are welcome. To the…

Noooo. It's Butlins! We're all about fun. And we're all about history. Put them together and the fun never stops. There was a period in history where more and more families were seeing more and more money in their bank accounts. This also aligns with them having more children who…
We're not trying to make you go, oh no, no no. But, if love is in your heart for almost everything, we have something here that is nothing but wonderful. Imagine watching a crumbled mess of a building almost be
miraculously transformed into a place anyone would want to stay in, let alone…
For many of us, religion is not a big thing in our lives. We might reference it during the holidays, or where other instances suggest we do, but this is kind of rare. But what about Nuns in this day and age? Religious people become nuns as a way to dedicate their entire lives…

The old stereotype of crumbled architecture, barefoot residents and non-existent infrastructure is old hat. Delhi has established itself as a top world city by shedding its old stereotypes and embracing modernization, driven…

Another rail post, but of a different timbre this time: these posts seem to be coming fast and furious now that the planet is making it quite clear that we dim humans are missing the plot. Recent climate data shows that global warming is accelerating at an unprecedented rate, with human activities identified as…
Oz is one of those places that everyone wants to visit, and that's no surprise, when you consider the depth and breadth that the country has to offer, even if it is rather far away from where you might be at the moment. Why is that? Perth's unique character as a travel destination stems…

Is this typical European efficiency or someone's idea of a joke. Or both? The Netherlands and Belgium share a 450 km border, which is notable for its complexity, particularly in the town of Baarle. This border is part of the Schengen Area, meaning there are no regular passport checks. The border's intricacies stem from historical treaties and land swaps, resulting…
