Can you ever be too organised when you're about to go on a trip? Is that even possible? You can never be too organised, because travel is a living, breathing organic thing. It changes like the wind. Like a bad video game, hurdles suddenly appear that you must leap over, most…
Life of Luxury
Is there only one decent location to take a picture in Cleveland Ohio – the Arcade?
What a headline that is. What does it even mean? Let's get to the bottom of it, shall we? Portuguese football team captain and former Real Madrid striker (and dreamboat) Cristiano Ronaldo, and international tennis legend Rafael Nadal, are behind the Tatel restaurant due to open in Spain's third-largest metropolis this summer.…
Pardon our poor English for the post's title: we couldn't resist. But, the question still stands: do you know? We won't be surprised if you don't. Raja Ampat doesn't get much press, really. So, let's start at the beginning. Raja Ampat is in Papua in Indonesia. The name given to these islands…
Now, here's something to get excited about. If you have the means ($$$) and the time, then Air New Zealand are your new best friends. They're introducing a new service where Boeing 787s are being refitted to include bunk beds. By 2024, passengers will be able to book four-hour sessions in flat sleeping…
It’s logical to assume that last-minute fares should go down in price. After all, an empty seat generates nothing for an airline, so why wouldn’t they want to keep cutting the price as takeoff nears? Even $50 > $0, right? If you're a regular traveler, you'll be smart enough to know that the…
Rent classic British cars from the 1960’s and onwards. Go on, son. You know it makes sense.
Almost everyone who considers themself a traveler has taken at least one cruise. Whether it's ocean cruising, river cruising, singles or solo cruises, adults-only and couples cruises, luxury cruises or adventure cruises, there is something for everyone. And, sure, cruises have a certain "reputation" with some non-believers, but that is just sensationalism. …
Some people have just got it made. Whether it's money, beauty, brains, some people just have all of the luck. And, of course, luck is only a minor part. Connections is probably the most important skill to have, as it helps most of us punters to slowly work our way up the ladder.…
Modern tourists will inevitably take planes to where they're headed. That just makes sense in so many ways. Air travel offers far more routes to destinations that you want, compared to other modes. If you're lucky, you find a super cheap ticket, plop down into a window seat and off you go!…
Don't you just love it when traditions are bucked, the same-old-same-old is discarded and an entrepreneur feels free to express themself in a way that says "I don't care what you think. Go with me or go home." Where would we be if those free spirits didn't exist? For example, Thomas…
Can you guess what "The KL" is? No, not some here-today gone-tomorrow hip-hop band. And not some hopeful moniker for a forlorn small town in Kansas. It's the playful (and much easier to pronounce) nickname that the residents of Kuala Lumpur use to refer to their lovely and largely unsung country.
For…
Or did we mean go slow in Slovakia? Either way, you win, especially when you discover this known country, but then find out how much you have to learn - and enjoy - about it. It's another one of those "bubbling under" countries, just waiting for you to search and enjoy.
According to…
We can probably count - on one hand - those of our lovely readers who don't love Studio Ghibli films, the Japanese animation studio based in Koganei, Tokyo. With classics such as My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke and more, Studio Ghibli is an eternal film franchise that captivates everyone who watches.…
We assume that, since you're on our site, you like to travel. And, if that's the case, we also assume that you have experienced some of the complexities of travel, especially when it comes to booking tickets with airlines. The rules can often be - to most humans - overly complex and difficult to understand. …
Life is life, and it's full of stuff and part of that is pampering yourself. Especially when you have the resources to really enjoy it. Sometimes, life comes to you and you're able to bask in in. Sometimes, you need to stretch a bit to enjoy the glamorous life. But, sometimes…
It’s the most dominant fast food chain on the planet, serving 68 million customers a day in 120 countries. You won’t spot the golden arches, though, anywhere on one tiny island in the easternmost Caribbean. “Bajans didn’t like it,” says Michael Harrison when asked about the absence of McDonalds in Barbados. “When they want a…
Provence is for you. As we say, start slowly, then taper off. And then explore Luberon Market & Villages
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…
