Keep on Chuuk’n baby. Sun, fun and quiet. Ahhh.

If you've had enough of "what's up guys?" videos and the same three places to go in Rome, may we enrich the history content for you thinking people who look forward to yesteryear, or back to the future. We often find that this kind of travel is the best kind. Why? You…
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…
In this post, we focus on Europe and more specifically, the UK. We write about these places a lot simply because the UK and Europe are top travel locations. (For reference here, England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, UK.) It shares land borders with Wales to…
Yes, it probably seems like an odd title for a post, because we, too, wondered about how many beaches there are in Riga. From our fuzzy memories, we seem to recall Riga as being landlocked and in some ways, forlorn and forgotten. But, as you'll - and as we discovered, Latvia offers way…
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?…
Perusing YouTube today, we landed on a video about the UK hotel chain Britannia hotels. After a little digging, we discovered that there were quite a few reviews, and - at least as the YouTube reviews went, things were not looking good. In fact, some of what was discovered by the YouTube sleuths, the…
Join us, again, as we venture into the leafy English countryside. This post focuses on more of the southern climes of the UK, way down past London and into the "leafy" parts as its known. There are dozens of lovely little villages for you to explore, but one that we like very much…
As ever, we plumb the heights and the depths of the internet everyday to find content to entertain you (and us.) But we always look for the unusual. So, even though we are of Welsh stock and have been there many, many many times, we've found a new place that was not within…
. . . we're not going.
This post may be polarizing, but we feel like it needs to be said. We are deeply suspicious (and nervous) about flying on some Boeing jets. You must have had your head under the pillows if you haven't heard of the rather troubling articles about the Boeing's…
Thanks for the memories. Although this post is devoted to a well-known and beloved chain of US stores, Sears & Roebuck, the brand was - and still is - remembered almost everywhere. If you needed to buy something, Sears was almost always the first stop: they would inevitably have it.
In its…
Sit down and prepare yourself for another post about yet another monster machine that you won't believe until you see it. It's ostensibly a machine made for war, but happily it was never used for that and out of the whole intent and effort, this singular apparatus managed to show the way to more clever…
Who doesn't love potatoes? They're a staple everywhere. They're good for you, plentiful and come in any number of styles and varieties. We love 'em. The National Potato Council (USA) tracks this and while it lags behind a year or two, you can easily follow the per capita potato consumption (currently at 117 pounds…
We're confident that anyone who wants to travel will always want First Class tickets. But, in the decades gone by, even business professionals couldn’t plump the cash for the standard cost of a regular flight, let alone first class airline tickets. At the time, they were sky high (no pun intended.) Fare on…
We here at Matouring are not politically driven, but we do care about the world's people. Do you ever shed a tear for some countries and its people who take the brunt of the pain when another country steps on top of it? Can you think of any countries that might do that,…
One day, very soon, the existing Powers That Be will shuffle of their mortal coils and, with any luck, the rest of them will wake up to the fact that the rest of the 8,045,311,437+ humans will want peace. They will want prosperity. And, most of all, they will want to be free…
