Off we go again today, searching for - and delivering - another reason to visit our site regularly. So, as lovely and as unforgettable as they are, how many times can you visit Venice or Paris? Or, perhaps better said, how many times do you think you might want to skip Venice or…
Hardly! And, so, here's another post for those with palpable wanderlust. Are you the type? Do you long to see everywhere on the planet before you shuffle off this mortal coil? Do you have no problems with wandering through the weeds or the woods to find yourself in nowhere, so to speak?…
We write a lot about Mexico, because it has a lot to offer, of course. Sun, sea, food, lovely people and it's a holiday bargain. The country is probably more diverse than you remember and, as you jaunt from city to city, you can see how Mexico is a fascinating patchwork of interconnected…
Hardly! Mexico is a massive and bustling country, but to this day, it still has a "reputation" of being slow to move and not firing on all cylinders. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. We've been there and it is as action-packed, bustling and diverse as any place on the planet.…
No. Far from it. In fact, it's one of the most up-to-date metros on the planet, as is its home, Santiago. Even a gringo can manage to master it, as you'll see in the video below.
Some of us get very used to the way we like to live and how our…
Relax - that title is not what you may think it is. We're covering Chihuahua in this post. Maybe a better name would be Mexico n' ruins. We've seen worse, though: we once heard someone pronounce it as "chiwowwow." And another variation that we love is "chi-hua hua" as if it was…
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…
but Antarctica's hot! If you're one of those explorers who must see everywhere, then Antarctica's certainly on your list, or it should be. Either way, here's an offer that's hard to refuse, courtesy of our affiliate friends, G Adventures. If you're quick, you can save up to 40% off Select Antarctica 23/24…
You know our mantra here on our site. We love travel and we love history, and we love it when we can combine the two. And we love it even more when we find hidden treasures around the globe. Even more, it's always a thrill to be able to highlight history in…
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…
We've been to Cartagena, Colombia many, many times. Why, you may ask? We have family there, but - even more - it's such a wonderful place to be (as is all of Colombia.) Relaxed, hip, diverse, fun and rich in history. And the food transcends. Located on the northern coast…
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…
A good day in Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires is one of those places that is on everyone's list to see. Even if you know nothing about it, you want to go there. Unless you've been under a rock all of this time, this is one of those must-see places on the planet. …
