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…
A few years back, an online website, Skiplagged, appeared, promising to "find flights the airlines don’t want you to see," as their motto says. Their website explains: Our unique algorithm shows the cheapest regular flights and hidden-city flights faster than any other site. Hidden-city flights refer to itineraries with multiple legs where the traveler…
It’s a long walk to your gate. Be prepared.

It’s leafy, down south.
Surely one of the most annoying aspects of travel is keeping your boarding pass with you before you fly. Sometimes the hang-up is when you print it at home: you find that you don't have ink in your printer. Once you to the store to buy the printer ink, at home, the…
Either you love San Francisco or you are wrong.

Not your typical Wild Men of Borneo.
Reading the news recently, post-Covid it feels like everything is falling apart. Flights are delayed or - even worse - canceled with little or no warning. Some seasoned airlines don't seem to be able or willing to solve on-the-ground problems with their flight schedule issues. Calling it frustrating doesn't even begin to…
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
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.
