We like to feature Belgrade when we can, as it’s a genuinely diverse and fun place to visit. You can cast away all of the cobwebs of the olde Belgrade, as those are yesterday’s news and certainly not the reality of this up-and-coming destination.

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…
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…
OK, all of you Billy Joe and Bobby Sue wannabes, if you're looking for the authentic Dukes of Hazzard vibes, then get ready; we have the place for you. Morph into Bo, Luke Duke and Daisy Duke at a real, if somewhat reduced service offering at the Occoneechee Nascar track in Raleigh–Durham, in North Carolina,…
A topic we often highlight - billionaires - is high on everyone's list nowadays , especially if you live inside TicTok.

We love cars, although we're sensible enough to know that their place (as it is now) on earth is not helping the environment at all. Having lived in and experienced a number of locations in the world, even as the earth burns, we still see six litre pickup trucks and supercars trundling (and…
Where do we even start with this one? Good intentions, excellent execution, a sound business plan and then . . pfft. Nothing. Nada, Nunca. Zwentendorf is a nuclear power reactor in Austria in the Austrian state of Lower Austria. It was decided that the region needed a power plant. …
Magically, as our technology gets better (forget TikTok and Facebook for now) the layers of our earth are - in the capable hands of archeologists - gently peeled back to go forth into the past, telling us more about ourselves. Sometimes the news is not good: humans have a habit of destroying…
In this day and age, where everything is digital, and there are billionaires on every corner (ho hum) how do you stand out? Sure, you can stake your claim on some of the AHDH sites such as TikTok, but those are fleeting. And, how can you actually be sure that this moment's latest…
Perhaps it should be called Kittilaaahh. With the world ostensibily on fire right now, it is only natural to seek shelter. But where can you go that isn't already overrun with fellow humans thinking the same thing? How about Kittilä? Let's start by setting the setting. Kittilä is a municipality…
As if there weren't enough problems between countries, bordering on or actually embroiled in some kind of on-going conflict, it always has the possibility to get worse. At the time of this writing there was an event where a US solider decided to run over to the North Korean border into a town called…
Here is another example of your editor fooling around and ruining his SEO (search engine optimization) statistics, but I can't help myself. I run this site for pleasure, throwing in a little history, a smidgen of humour, and hopefully some enjoyment for you. I make a little money, but I do it for…
Not long ago, the title of this post could (and still does) convey the allure and beauty that Alexandria has to offer, but now with the GEM Museum finally being open, it's time to make your way to Egypt to be amazed with what the museum has for you. It's astounding, really. …
Join us today as we time-travel back to the 1940s through to the 1960s. For many mature people, those were the halcyon days. Jazz was king, most world economies were robust and entertainment was at the top of the list, especially after World War II. Out of this mélange of influences and…
