Surely one of the most annoying, frustrating and exasperating elements of travel is the act of simply trying to find your seat on your plane. And then combine that with attempting to hustle your luggage into an overhead compartment even remotely close to your seat. What's even more annoying is that this mazurka…
Mindfulness
The mystery still lingers
It's September of 2023. Any thinking person will be aware of and supportive of UNESCO. As we watch the world fall / burn to pieces over these past couple of years, we need the organisation even more. Big oil is still beating its chest to the call of dozens of waiting billionaires.…
The fastest sleep you’ve ever had.
Duty now for the future. Take the train, Jane.
Most of the developed world relies on rail. Do your part.
It’s a long walk to your gate. Be prepared.
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…
There is a place in Germany where Nazi ideals still exist.

Moulay-Idriss-Zerhoun is Moroccan me happy
Not your typical Wild Men of Borneo.

We rail on and on again (get it?) about rail. It is the past, present and future of travel. Especially the future. As automobiles continue to clog up the roads, polluting all the while, carrying - maybe - five persons in the vehicle, it becomes more and more apparent that this is…
This is the road less traveled. Slow down and visit forgotten places.
Being a pilot is serious business.
We woke up this morning with a real longing to go to Japan, a place where we've never been, but know that we will go, someday. After a little research, we decided to go back in time to Japan in the 1940s. The miracle of the internet constantly drip-feeds us, every day, with…
We will remember this time in history as the time where everything went wrong all at once. Between Covid, forest fires, floods, earthquakes and people fighting each other, probably not even knowing why.
So, to add salt to the wound, there are even problems with obtaining planes to be able to shuttle those who…
Here's another delightful bubbling under find (for most of us.) We scour the globe every day to find little known destinations for you. It was only recently when we discovered the Perhentian Islands. A visit to the Perhentian Islands is taking a step into a rare, exotic paradise, and the perfect place to…
