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.…

Apologies in advance for the mini-sermon here, but it always breaks our hearts when we see people unable to live their lives to the fullest due to geopolitical nonsense, as we are seeing now (this is December 2023.) Like a broken record, the same blindness and self-aggrandizement by a "select few" around the globe…
We travel a lot, and much of it can be really frustrating, especially when some of the rules and regulations seem like a test (suitcase sizes, for example) and if you have to take two airlines, their suitcase sizes are, of course different, which then forces you to buy yet another suitcase - likely one…
Up until a few days ago, we'd never heard of Mount Bromo, let alone get a hankering to want to visit. After some clever investigation courtesy of your editor's clever better half, we started to look into. It's one of those places that you will need to make a concerted effort to visit,…
Ahh, la belle France. We can never get enough of it. And there is lots to get. As of 2022, the most desirable places to spend your holiday time in France are 1. Paris. 2. Nice. 3. Lyon 4. Bordeaux 5. Marseilles 6.Strasbourg 7. Lille and, finally…
There's a reason why we especially like our affiliate friends, Virgin Airlines, in any of its configurations. And so we like to feature the airline when we can. Sir Richard Branson is holding up to his promises, and one of those is to promote and use Virgin Atlantic’s historic flight on 100% Sustainable…
We like to work with many travel companies, mainly because it gives us the depth and breadth to offer you a diverse mix of choices. If you're the avid travelers that we suspect you might be, you want to skip the "been there, done that" locations and go the extra mile to make that…
To keep our readers (and us) happy, we're passionate about boning up on all things travel. It's a habit of ours, as we love to travel, too - a lot. And we're always scouring the web to see what's new, what's old (history) and what's out there that we think you'll enjoy.
We've…
Here's another post for you where we excitedly present another pulse-racing location in the world that you may not know about but should . . and will. Many of these are available for all to wander through, at no cost other than what you pay to arrive. Some are spectacularly remote, others…
. . . . there's a place for you in the airport lounge. At last! You've been the diligent road warrior. You've been across the planet (maybe even several times) to bring commerce and riches to your employers. But, for one reason or another, having access to the airport lounges has…
Europe for less than £795. And that includes up to 15 days!
There’s always room for one more.
Why should the rich be the only ones who get in on all of the good things in life? Well, yes, of course, they're rich. But why does that matter? Yes, you're right, I understand that their riches often pay for the luxuries that us Hoi polloi have. Fine, so they…
You will have had to been hiding under a rock if you're not aware of the horrors of what has been happening in Ukraine since February 24, 2022. Call us naive, but prior to this horror show on Russia's part, it felt like the world was going in the right direction. It felt…
One thing about the world is that you'll never run out of things to do. Lucky us. And here we feature another such place that we're willing to bet that most of us haven't heard of, let alone seen. It's Ajara. A region located in southwestern Georgia, it offers a unique…
Malta is the answer. And it's a place that many often forget about, which is a huge shame. If you're not in the know, Malta itself is a beautiful Mediterranean island nation with a rich history, stunning landscapes, and a unique culture that makes it a compelling destination for travelers. And it's easy…
Moulay-Idriss-Zerhoun is Moroccan me happy
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…
It's sometimes a stigma if we signal that we want to be alone for a while. There is nothing wrong with that. Usually we're our best company - at least we can be honest with ourselves - maybe. Being alone provides the opportunity to connect with your thoughts, feelings, and interests…
Off to the beach; I will be out of reach. Let’s Goa!
