But, what is equally as interesting is the "hidden" places that can fascinate. One such "hidden" place is actually…
It is always a good strategy to start slowly, and then taper off. But it's a fat chance that we'll ever be able to do that. Especially when we live in the electrified, accelerated world that we do. But, the geniuses in the world are always looking to find the next big leap. Here is…
As far as we know, this much is true. And, it's related to a travel company called Blade, hence it appearing here. They rent helicopter, seaplane and or jet services, mostly in New York City.

The environment makes our characters. (Japanese proverb.) A large number of Japanese companies have instituted telecommuting policies over the past few weeks, under the logic that the crowded conditions of commuter trains and enclosed offices are high-risk environments for the transmission of coronavirus. However, with Japanese houses and apartments being decidedly on the small side,…
In 1984 when I first started traveling solo I had no one to mentor me. If there were other women around my age doing what I was doing I had no way of finding them. After all, we hadn't yet gotten to a point in cyber history where most people had computers in their homes.…
