.... that likes taking the scenic route? R2-Detour. Oh, ha ha ha. We crack ourselves up sometimes. And why not? You only live once. Depending on where you live, enjoying the Disney experience may never present itself to you for one reason or another. And that would be…
The Thinking Traveller
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.…
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…
No, that is not an horrific typo on our part; we know "well English." Instead, it is an eye-catching headline that will likely pique the interest of our readers who live the good old USA. It's a big place, America, with lots of stuff, and so many of its citizens have the ways…
When something secret shows up in the most public of places. It's no news that, many many years ago, Korea was divided into two; South Korea and North Korea. (If your history of this period is sketchy, the country was split apart primarily as a result of the end of World War II and…
Why should the rich be the only ones who get in on all of the good things in life? Well, yes, of course, they're rich. But why does that matter? Yes, you're right, I understand that their riches often pay for the luxuries that us Hoi polloi have. Fine, so they…
Duty now for the future!
The fastest sleep you’ve ever had.
Want to go back, way back in time when the Beatniks and the Hippies roamed the earth? Want to explore a place that most certainly is not on your written agenda? How about a road trip to Coolville? Yes, the name of this town in Ohio, USA is Coolville. At first…
Calm in Romford. Relax and enjoy an English day.
Duty now for the future. Take the train, Jane.
No, it’s not trickery. It’s math.
There’s no shame in loving what you love.
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?
Most of the developed world relies on rail. Do your part.
We're all about doing the right thing for the planet, and then for the rest of us. Taking trains is one way to help the environment, rather than driving. Using mass transit (and here we truly use the word mass in the best sense) is another smart approach. In many parts of…
