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…
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…
We love cars, although we're sensible enough to know that their place (as it is now) on earth is not helping the environment at all. Having lived in and experienced a number of locations in the world, even as the earth burns, we still see six litre pickup trucks and supercars trundling (and…
(*Collapsing old buildings.) Or, when will they ever learn? Yet another post in our series of watching history disappear, like it or not. In this case, it's an example of the US government's intent to raze two important buildings in Chicago, Illinois. These historic Chicago skyscrapers should stay, as they acted as the…
In this day and age, where everything is digital, and there are billionaires on every corner (ho hum) how do you stand out? Sure, you can stake your claim on some of the AHDH sites such as TikTok, but those are fleeting. And, how can you actually be sure that this moment's latest…

These "Hey Presto!" posts make it easy for you to tour the world from the comfort of…
Here's another travel test. How many of you know where Bandipur is? Probably only a handful of people. And that might be a bit sad, as it probably won't be as many people as it should: the world is like that: so big with so much to explore. Let's…
Back in the olden days of the electric interwebs, the whole intent of the thing was to share. Commerce came along later and that was that: making money became more important than making friends or making a difference. Of course, if you work hard with good intent, then fortune - if not…
You can always trust the Nordic people to think about ways to save the planet. They've been doing it for decades. They are surrounded by nature and, as such, they take care of their "home." Environmental consciousness is deeply ingrained in Nordic culture. These countries have a long history of valuing and respecting…
In the words of Depeche Mode, "people are people, so why should it be that you and I should get along so awfully?" This song was written in 1984 and, sadly, it feels like we're living in Orwell's 1984 all over again. To us, anyway, the past couple of years has been a…
Maybe unknown to some. Maybe a bubbling-under hotspot. Maybe on everyone's lips except ours. But, in any case, let's talk about Siargao. It is a stunning tropical island located in the Philippines and has become increasingly popular among tourists in recent years. Here are several reasons why you should consider visiting Siargao…
Wolves get a bad rap in the human world. Throughout history, wolves have often been portrayed negatively in folklore, mythology, and fairy tales. They are often depicted as villains, symbols of darkness, or as creatures that prey upon livestock and humans. These stories have perpetuated negative stereotypes and fear of wolves. But, anyone…
