 Not so Faroe way

Have you been to Iceland? We have and it was certainly one-of-a-kind in so many ways and a must-see if you've not been.

Too many syllables: VRBO or AirBnB

Malta, not Gibralta’

We recently happened upon a fascinating video featuring the calming and kind Bettany Hughes where she takes viewers into locations - many subterranean - in this most interesting country. Its history is beyond impressive, especially with so many countries taking control at one time or another. In fact, Malta has a history dating…

Time travel in Venezuela

We love writing about history. It's like an onion, where the more you peel, the more you find the prize. And we are well and truly blessed nowadays to have history at our fingertips, at the end of a remote control. Discovering new editions of historical topics is one of the best…
