This is kind of an unusual post for us, as it focuses on the place where we live, as it happens. Every big city has its own unique characteristics. Whether it's the climate, or the views or the language or the food. Some of these characteristics might blend from city to city…
Here is a tale about making sure that you have made sure that you have booked the correct place: it is paramount. Double check your work before handing it in. Call ahead and confirm.
Every day, we scour the Interwebs to find content that we think you'll like. We try to steer away from the typical standard normal usual stuff that you usually see in your inbox. We love to travel, we've done it a lot and we want to find new and interesting options for ourselves…
Women are busy. They do a lot. So many rely on them. It's not an easy job. So is it any surprise that they want to go out, have a blast, let off some steam and paint the town red? No, of course not. And, so, some adroit travel…
Want to take a cruise, but perhaps have a few conditions that need to be met first? The cruise can’t be too long, the ship too crowded and not to the Caribbean again. Well, we have an option: Montreal and beyond, eh?
It's January of 2023 and we're absolutely loving the Amazon series The Bad Guy. Set in modern Palermo, Italy, it is an hilarious, unpredictable, subtle, violent and binge-worthy story of Mafia families, how they interact and the predictable / unpredictable outcomes that you would imagine. But, unlike most Mafia sagas, it is packed…
And now for something completely different again. We always look for the unusual. So, if you combine that goal with our sense of humour and adventure, may we present an accommodation that we think ticks all of the boxes: the WigWam motel.
If you're in business these days, you've got to be smart, clever, innovative and original or else you'll likely go under. And there has been a watershed of new ideas and business execution attempts that have lost their steam or have dried up. Thinking in a shell no longer works, and being crabby…
If ever there was a city that has universally admired vibes, its Sydney, Australia. And rightly so. The vibes are real, as are the people. Gorgeous weather, sea, sun and more, it’s worth the flight. Go, mate!
Going through passport control when traveling can be one of the most frustrating and painful events - we're sure you agree. But, it has to be done, doesn't it. And a lot of us do it. According to Statista.com, The number of international tourist arrivals worldwide dropped sharply in 2020 over the…
“Man, I was tame compared to what they do now.” Elvis set the template for what a rocker should be. Now, go see where he rocked!
Surely this has crossed your mind at one time or another. Let go of your humdrum day-job for a bit. Fly away and do nothing but simply have fun. Take the kids if you have them. If not, simply act like one. And we have the place for you. …
Forty years ago, if you were discovered smoking marijuana, you would likely have been thrown in jail. You had to hide somewhere inconspicuous if you wanted to toke. And it was an expensive and potentially dangerous thrill - either through being incarcerated or from buying bad weed. But, we humans pressed on…
..... is now the New Mexico. If you read many travel magazines, you'll often see "throwback" articles that (if you're old enough) remind you of resorts, hotels, restaurants and activities from the bygone era - usually the 1950's and 1960's. For those of us who were around back then, we may have been lucky…
Looking for your next travel destination? Are you a music fan? Do you like to mix the two, maybe with a little ganja and history? Well, we have the perfect combination for you. You've probably guessed it - it's Jamaica. You know it - the Caribbean island nation, that has a…
Our wonderful planet has no end of fabulous things to do, no matter where we are, or how old we are. And there are few things that create genuine pent-up excitement more than amusement parks. The prospect of visiting will always thrill the kids - and maybe even some parents (wallet considerations…
Cats are one of the most undefinable species on the planet. We bring them into our homes and they seethe disdain and muted anger when we attempt to touch them. And then, moments later, they saunter up to us, curl up in our laps and purr as if there was no tomorrow. …
