. . . oh yeah.
This post is here simply as a bit of fun, but also to show off how good technology is in our day and age. And this image is not really even that old.
A chap named Will Pearson perched himself on top of London's Shard and created this rather magnificent…
Technology
We love Europe - so much. And one of the aspects of Europe is that its history provides an endless array of activities, locations, variety and compact way of discovering the world and its history. Everywhere you turn, you'll find something new and fascinating, especially if you read, investigate and prepare for your visit there.…
When we hear museums, we think of ancient relics and stunning paintings hidden away in glass cases. What if we tell you there's a Museum of the Future? You don't have to travel through time—just travel to Dubai!
With so much awesome stuff about the Museum of the Future, we don't even know where to start!…
If you’ve never heard the term "fifth-freedom flights," you might be missing out on a lucrative way to snag a deal or use your frequent flyer miles. But to explain why, we have to start from the early days of airline regulation: Back in 1944, airlines and governments from around the world got together in…
From mad dashes across Europe to exploring ancient castles in Japan, I've spent the majority of the last six years living and working all over the world. As a digital nomad I bring everything I need with me on trips ranging from a few weeks to a few months. I try to pack as lightly as possible, since…
If you are reading this, then you are likely no technophobe. In fact, you may relish the opportunity to get your hands on new technology and services. We know we do here at Matouring. But, when you think about it how much is too much when it comes to taking things while you travel? Do…
By this point in 2020, I'm sure we're all ready to just blast off this planet — or at least I am. Not to mention, after recent news broke that potential life has been detected on Venus, I wouldn't mind poking around up there. I guess the main dilemma is that I wouldn’t really have anywhere…
From ordering food to using Google Maps indoors, you'll use these tips daily. You use Google Maps on your Android or iPhone to check commute times on your way to work and find new restaurants to try out on the weekends -- but if you're only using the Maps app for the basics, you're missing…
Why we love airbus
Mostly, it's because the headquarters are in Toulouse, which is a gorgeous historic city in France. And, of course, France also means impeccable food. It’s known as La Ville Rose (‘The Pink City’) due to the terra-cotta bricks used in many of its buildings. Its 17th-century Canal du Midi links…
There is never a bad time to celebrate The Beatles. Can you think of many bands who connected so completely and creatively as The Fab Four? And this legend was only reinforced with Peter Jackson's Get Back series on Disney (which made your Admin burst into tears (of joy) several times.) Having…
The force is strong, young one. It’s been 45 years since the first Star Wars blew us all away in theaters, and the impact and memories of that first film (and many of the others) are an embedded part of the psyches of most generations, worldwide. Classics do not pay justice to the film franchise.…
One of the things we like to expose and promote here is interesting architecture and its even more interesting usage. With the elastic and durable materials that architects have at their fingertips now, the sky is the limit. In this case - literally.
We imagine that many of you were terrified when you…
Not to pick on any particular travel company: if you think about it, can you imagine the logistical nightmares that airlines and cruises have to contend with on a daily basis? Sure, most have been doing this for years, but can they really plan for each eventuality, especially when there are so many moving…
This post is aimed at those who don't take things too seriously. And, we mean that. But hopefully your sense of humour is intact. And, at the end of you reading this, if you find yourself in that part of the world, the activity is real and it is a place where…
The United States is the United States. Europe is Europe. Correct? Apparently not, when it comes to flying. If you travel regularly, you'll know about the concept of codeshare. A codeshare agreement, also known as codeshare, is a business arrangement, common in the aviation industry, in which two or more airlines…
This post may seem obvious to you - and that's a good thing - but it's interesting that many of us don't always put 2+2 together. For one reason or another, what seems like a logical thought at 02:30 in the morning doesn't always magically appear again the next day.
Especially if you…
We love history. We love trains. We love France. We love you! What a combination, bien sur. OUIGO has been preparing a nice surprise for you for several months now: trains on the classic line, with great prices. SNCF Voyageurs launched its first Ouigo Train Classique low-cost passenger services…
... if you don't eat him first. As if modern life isn't good enough as it is, we have something that will make your day complete - even if you don't survive. You've been to London, or Paris, or Buenos Aires. But have you ever been eaten by Godzilla? We'll bet…
Here's an interesting idea. Get away from car payments. How about having access to dozens of models of automobiles that you can use, swap and refresh as often as you like. A car subscription. And you should see the choice!
Meet FINN. Europe-based FINN are revolutionizing conventional car ownership and making driving…
This one is going to be hard to resist, we think. Who doesn't want to rub elbows with the rich and famous, even if we have no idea what to say to them? We watch the movies and see them in the tabloids and all over social media. Nice work if you…
