Since Covid, there has been this yin / yang conversation happening about where and how to work. Throngs of people returned to their homes to try to diminish the virus but, as a by-product, also realised the enjoyment and benefits of not having to spend ninety minutes (twice a day) commuting back and forth…
Double your pleasure, double your fun. Trainball, anyone?
Despite its idiosyncrasies, the United States is still a popular place to visit. In fact, the USA recorded a total of 22 million tourists in 2021, ranking 7th in the world in absolute terms. It's a big place with lots to do, so perhaps that number doesn't come as a surprise. Like all places,…
You know our mantra here on our site. We love travel and we love history, and we love it when we can combine the two. And we love it even more when we find hidden treasures around the globe. Even more, it's always a thrill to be able to highlight history in…
Let's get right to the point, here. Why stay in an unoriginal, boring cardboard box when you travel? You don't go to Paris to see the Champs-Elysees . . . again . . do you? When you're surrounded by luxurious 16th mini-palaces that you can actually afford, why would you stay in…

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…
No, it's not the name of some new trendy Pale Ale. Still, we wish we could have been around when the first nations of Canada named this place. We would love to have seen the discourse and decision-making. We wonder who finally triumphed in the name game. Was it rock, paper,…
Emirates Bus Line? Even slumming it is luxurious. Where do I sign?
Ya gotta go sometime. Why not visit Colma, California?
We read the other day of a former Russian submarine commander accused by Ukraine of deadly strikes on its territory has been shot dead while jogging in the southern Russian city of Krasnodar. It's possible that, after reading about that, people might shy away from Krasnodar. Political maneuvers will never cease, even as the "masters" of…
